About The Artwork
For this sci-fi project, ideas slowly came while taking pictures of the professional model portrayed here. I thought her particular hands and breast shape could represent the visual metaphor of the Venus planet I had in mind. Another important presence is that of the three solitary bees I found already dead in my garden. Since it wasn't a problem for the model, I asked her to place them on her breast, as I imagined these fascinating insects like some kind of freaky explorers of that planet. I used extra-fine artists' oil colors on a 100% cotton canvas, mounted on a wooden frame on the back, with installed hardware ready to be hung.
