Description

Someone is folded forward, and the person isn’t there. All you see is what they’re wearing and using: the legs bound into a mermaid tie, a pair of heels, a Hitachi and a plug. Each is drawn in glowing aqua, teal and cobalt against deep black, so the whole figure is implied by shape alone.

This is an original acrylic painting on a 16 x 20 inch canvas panel, part of the ongoing Constructed Constraint series. In the series, the person is always absent, and the constraints and wearables carry the story. The composition is tall and symmetrical, with stacked wraps and knots down the center and bright highlights that catch every twist of the fiber.

Then turn off the lights and bring out a black light. There’s a surprise waiting.

It arrives unframed, sized to drop into a standard 16 x 20 picture frame, so you can choose a frame that suits your space. Signed by Nadia Vanilla ♡

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.
