Perfect woman of Pablo Picasso ‘Nude Woman in a Red Armchair’

Curvy
Smooth and glowing
So feminine
Colourful
Bright
Treasuring her femininity
Shy but naked
Innocent but seductive
So open but closed at the same time
Obedient yet powerfully supportive
Sitting on a throne but put into the corner
Accepting her man
Kissed, loved, been passionately obsessed by him
Owned by him. Sharing her body with him
It’s not a picture of a moment: it is a story. A story of relationship between man and woman. Intimate so so very close, secret even (some may not even notice that relationship they have). The peek of relationship: intimate kiss.
Her relationship with the environment. The outside world, although being of the same nature as if created for her, perfectly curvy for her, repeating her lines her language, but shadowing her, so much darker more dull, a background for her and her story.
And her place in that world. Her place is luxurious red chair a throne, royally holding her, but put into a dark corner… No way out it’s a corner her corner. Which is both a treasure a home for a woman and her prison at the same time: comfortable, aesthetic and luxurious but a trap.
She contains him in her body
Relationship between man and woman is an ownership too.
There is also a story of relationship between woman and her treasures. Both kinds of treasures: her precious jewellery – beautiful, expensive, big and noticeable, and her feminine body – the most precious the most beautiful treasure a woman can possess, enjoy aesthetically herself and impress others, that is the perfect jewell – her body – her feminine round breast.
That is a perfect woman for him.. Or for any man. Beautiful, and so feminine she is.

Christmas drinks exploration. 3 Drinks.

3-drinks

3 Drinks: bubbly, bubbly and red
Blue Black Purple
Acrylic on paper. Carton stencil and brush. Framed.
450×150

£1500. Available. Framed.

Party drinks exploration.

What are they? happy? really happy? How do they look from the outside? How do they feel from the inside?

The experiment was held on 3 wines: champaign, bubbly and red. Two people, a little food, lots of talks. Lots of music, lots of dancing. And how it looked from the outside, how it looked in wasn’t the same as how it felt.

Three wines: bubbly, bubbly and red.

Two points of view: face – the glass is raised high up, festive, celebrating; and profile -hiding behind the glass, feeling slightly down, a little sad and quite lonely.

Peak. Digital Art.

Peak
digital

Peak was started as a digital artwork, now I’m working on the stencil for it.

‘The Shard is the tallest building in Western Europe, its crystalline façade transforming the London skyline with a   multi-use 310 m (1,016 ft) vertical city of high-quality offices, world-renowned restaurants, the 5-star Shangri-La hotel, exclusive residential apartments and the capital’s highest viewing gallery, The View from The Shard, offering 360° views. The Shard is a timeless reminder of the power of imagination to inspire change.’

The Shard 

Peak is an exploration of height, of bringing each other up, about peaks as well, emotional, physical, peaks in feelings, peaks in lifes. What is it like to be above the rest of the world? What is it like to balance on the peak that heigh up? Dangerous, exciting? Yes, there is that and also dependence and also trust – complete trust, you can’t manage without it that height up.

Cells painting is an exploration of an ownership… the Perfect Ownership

Hugging
Holding from behind
Having to pieces
Being in every sell
Being pointed, gravitated, atracted by every little bit
Breaking apart
and holding together
Becoming part of all
Holding
and being held back
Not existing without owning any more
Containing and being material
Completely transforming
