Jacob Elordi fans divided over abstract portrait of Euphoria star: ‘I don’t know what this is’

Jacob Elordi has divided his fans after sharing an abstract portrait of himself by Sydney artist Caroline Zilinsky.

The Brisbane-born actor, 26, posted a photo of the oil painting, which depicts a shirtless Jacob flexing his muscles in a pair of jeans, to Instagram on Wednesday.

The abstract piece is a unique interpretation of Jacob.

His body is drawn out of proportion, with a long neck, thin arms and a very slender abdomen.

Many of Elordi’s followers quickly took to the comments section to share their comments on the artwork.

“Bruh, WTF is this?” one confused follower asked, while a second person added, “I don’t know what this is but I love you.”

Meanwhile, other fans loved the work and were quick to praise Zilinsky for portraying Jacob brilliantly.

‘Incredibly detailed and insightful work of art that has a deserved place in the esteemed Archibald Prize!’ one person gushed, while a second added: ‘It’s incredible.’

Meanwhile, Zilinsky shared a photo of a shirtless Jacob sitting in his trailer for the portrait while on set filming.

The two-time Archibald finalist captioned it with a quote from the French philosopher Albert Camus: “A man who has become aware of the absurd is bound to it forever.”

The oil on linen portrait is titled ‘A Lucid Heart – The Golden Age of Jacob Elordi’ and can be seen in the Art Gallery of NSW.

“The theme and title of the painting come from ‘The Myth of Sisyphus’ by Albert Camus, which Jacob was reading at the time of our meeting,” Zilinsky told Daily Mail Australia.

‘My only interest was to see the man sitting in front of me and he in turn saw himself in the work. Sometimes this requires transcending reality.’

The modernist painter has drawn many abstract portraits of famous people throughout her career, including Donald Trump and North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un.

Elordi started his career in 2018 by appearing in the Australian films Swinging Safari and The Very Excellent Mr Dundee.

He moved to Los Angeles several years later after being cast in the popular American teen drama Euphoria.
