Description

Three nude women, painted in cool tones, stare straight out at the viewer. They sit on a plinth built like a pyre, surrounded by flames in gouache. Before the fire went on, every resentment the artist couldn’t get out of her body was written by hand onto the areas that were later covered in flame. The words are still there under the paint, burned over but not erased. It’s the second panel in the four-painting series Relinquish: A Scene in Four Commands, alongside Release the girl, Exhale and soften, and Receive what comes. Original acrylic on canvas, 36″ x 36″.

Hey, quick note from Nadia here! The text in this product listing is created using AI.

I do NOT use AI in any creative works - not in any part of the Tarot deck, including the book and the Tarot section of this website. I do NOT use AI in things like my bio, artist statement, etc. I ONLY use my chatbot, under extremely close handling (no autopilot here!), for things inside the environment of the shop section of my website.

I do this so I can carry on with the business of making art, rather than trying to sell art. I very much hate AI, too, but I also know that my creative engine has almost been destroyed by the very hustle and added mental load required to keep that engine even operating.

Something had to give. I believe that you, the viewer who is reading this, will probably connect more with the art than with my shitty descriptions of it, so I'm delegating the descriptions to a bot, since it's mostly going to be a bot that crawls the text, anyway.
