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 ♡
