About The Artwork
The architectures of art became the content of cycles of formally different but conceptually related projects. In 2010, I began to paint the people inside the museums. Initially intended as a compositional tool for the empty interiors, Visitor Cutouts (oil on paper or linen on foam core) quickly developed into an independent resource combined with or detached from the museum context from which they came. I began this series of small watercolors with cutout figures to allow me to play with the narrative more, sometimes following the original photo based image and sometimes letting the story tell itself differently. The hanging or collaged figures stand out from the background emphasizing the parts of the whole before they return to their place within the story. Thus the best way to frame these works is a shadow box that lets the figures sway slightly and appear as detached.

Mila Dau studied Architecture in Rome, Italy where she began exhibiting her work. She lives and works in New York City. Mila Dau's work has centered on two principal themes: architectures and portraits. Facades and faces, terms which are linked both conceptually and etymologically, are ideas that have taken shape in her work. Mila Dau has produced two artists books - Oracles, a selection of miniature views of contemporary art museums and ancient architectural monuments, and Face to Face, taken from a series of extemporaneous portraits of artists in oil on linen. Her work has been exhibited both in Europe and in the United States and is in the the collection of the Brooklyn Museum in Brooklyn, The Canadian Centre for Architecture in Montreal, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, the Portland Museum of Art in Portland, Maine, the Whitney Museum of Art in New York and in various private collections in Europe and the U.S.
