About this artwork
Inspired by Matisse’s “The Red Studio”, this painting reflects a 2-year stretch of bliss and grief in the artist's life as she struggled to cope with mental illness while living in a tiny live/work studio with her partner.
This piece is about a woman stuck between what is real and what is not. She is monumental in one sense, yet also barely there, part of the body even undefined, ambiguous. She is caught between worlds, or maybe selves, suspended… in a pool of manic red-orange. Sometimes this red feels like a purgatory of anxiety, and other times like wide-open bliss—the mind offers ultimate freedom. So it turns out she is lady liberty, bare-chested as usual, except with psychedelic legs... However, the mind can also feel like a personal hell, meaning this woman is also prone to being encircled by fires she vaguely remembers starting herself, and boy does she burn.

« I’m exploring my relationship with reality and womanhood in both my art and life; within it all, I see angles and curves, depth and flatness, coolness and warmth. »
