About this artwork
DESCRIPTION
At first glance, the titular piece, Inflamed, presents a deceptive depth, constructed through meticulous layering of paints, glues and fibres. Upon closer examination, each area of the painting tells a different story. From the top, a wave of fear and excitement, in the middle loss of control and anxiety, at the bottom, the all too familiar physical pain of endometriosis and adenomyosis. This painting from top down represent's the artist's… mind and physical body during this transionary period in her life.

Robella
France
Robella is a bold multi-media abstract artist from post-apartheid South Africa, currently based in Paris, with a background in theatre, dance, and visual art. She employs mixed media, incorporating natural fibers like wool and combining painting with movement, glue, and ink to create rich textures. Her style examines intersections of collective and personal history within feminist frameworks, always challenging perceptions. Her work vibrates with emotional honesty and a powerful urge to prompt reflection and essential conversations.
