About this artwork
This is the first painting in a group of six entitled 'Genesis'. The group examines the wonder and reality of reproduction and fertility and tracks them onto the biblical Genesis story.
The techniques of early Italian painting - pigments hand-ground in egg yolk tempera and water gilding applied to a gessoed panel - have been used, evoking the religious wonder of painting of that period and transfering it to a secular spirituality.
In this painting,… female fertility is celebrated as the source of life. The mandorla shape, associated with the Virgin Mary in Italian painting, is also associated with the vagina. Here the shape is gilded and punched to make it shine out as it emerges from the dark background. The biblical quote associated with the painting refers to the emergence of the vault of heaven as the beginning of the universe. Here this Marian imagery and the biblical reference evoke the wonder of creation in the context of human reproduction.

« I seek to rekindle in contemporary viewers a sense of wonder, awe and tenderness in relation to the world around them. »
Lara Broecke's passion for early Italian art was born while living in Florence. She currently lives in France and paints using early Italian techniques - gold leaf and egg tempera paint, made by hand-grinding pigments in egg yolk, on wooden panels coated with gesso. She marries a medieval sensibility with contemporary compositions, creates rich representations of the natural world and man's relationship to it.
