This piece is composed by 4 oil paintings of dimensions 40cm by 40cm, parts of my serie "a butter world". These artworks capture the intimate relationship between humans and their environment, highlighting the contemporary issues we face. This series harmoniously evokes the collective responsibility to preserve our planet and people, inviting viewers to reflect deeply on our connection with nature and our commitment to its preservation.
"The bucket" embodies a source of infinite creativity, a sort of Pandora's box from which multiple and contrasting realities can emerge. This series will be guided by a distinctive color palette. Let yourself be carried away on this new journey that might sketch a better world, opening doors to unexplored horizons of creativity and artistic expression.
The second piece, a stork trapped in a plastic bag, is a poignant symbol of the dangers our consumption poses to nature. The use of pages from the Bible, particularly the chapter of Genesis (title visible at the top left), adds an additional dimension to the artwork, highlighting humanity's responsibility towards creation and the need for ethical reflection on our environmental impact.
The following piece "Odette at the beach collecting wastes" shows a woman carrying a garbage bag filled with trash, engaging in a beach cleanup. The use of pages from Proust's 'Swann's Way' adds texture and depth, creating an intriguing juxtaposition between the beauty of literature and the harsh reality of environmental pollution. This painting highlights the crucial role of individual actions in this struggle.
For the last piece, progression, resilience, and forward movement, the girl on the skateboard advances with determination through her life and struggles. The background carries deep symbolism, evoking a range of emotions and ideas. It might represent passion, energy, or even a sense of urgency. Red is also a symbol of struggle and resistance, reminding us of the battles fought by women for equality and justice.
The depiction of a woman skateboarding in this symbolically charged environment can be seen as a bold challenge to gender stereotypes. She asserts her presence with strength and confidence in a domain often associated with masculinity, highlighting the ability of women to occupy any space with determination and courage.
Thus, 'Skate Girl 3' transcends the simple act of skateboarding to become a visual statement of feminism and emancipation, capturing the spirit of progression and determination that drives humans in their quest for equality and freedom.
