“OPEN WINDOW KISSES” is a a celebration of women and the power of their femininity. It is a “Rinascita”, or rebirth, of the modern human. 

 

Contrasting against the earthier color palettes and darker chiaroscuros of the late Renaissance and Baroque periods, I chose to bring in ultra-bright, saturated colors, and intense light for these paintings. I invite you to indulge in the journey of a woman who lives in technicolor, a woman kissed by light. History does not speak for her. 

 

Through this Open Window, you enter two eras of time at once: The antiquity of the Renaissance and the rainbow-ed prospect of the future. The Open Window is neither entrance nor exit, but a soft barrier, and yet a portal between these subjects and the outside world. 

Seeing through the window you obtain a unique voyeuristic peek into a moment of their lives and experience all actions completely unabashed. 

 

While most of the subjects are solo, I encourage you to explore how they might interact together in the space you have created for them. Speak to them and let them speak to you.

You may even get an invitation if you are lucky.
