About The Artwork

“I am from Neptune” is part of my "Identity series" and is a sub-series which is called "planetary series". Each artwork is devoted to a certain planet or moon. The women in those paintings simply say from where they are, thereby acknowledging that they are different. Although this series was deeply inspired by the possibility of alien life and by my fascination with space, it's deeper meaning is to address the topic of otherness. The woman could possibly also say other say other things like: I am gay or I am an addict, etc. In this case I wanted to give the alien women a "bored housewife-touch", but the viewer can also see other possible scenes and associate other situations with that woman. "I am from Neptune" wants to say that it should be possible to openly speak about who you are, about your problems, your individuality and not hide from your self. In society there are still too many taboo subjects and otherness is regarded as failure and inacceptable. But that is slowing some of us who might be very special down and is holding us back. It even changes your character that much that you don't know yourself anymore. Imagine you would meet a lady from Neptune - who is also a bored housewife - would that not be interesting and unexpectedly exciting? I wish that with a similar attitude we could approach other people in life.

Lena Snow is a fine artist based in Germany who currently has her studio in a small town on the edge of the Black Forest (near Baden-Baden) where she is working on her latest artworks while keeping in touch with nature. Lena is specialized in female portraiture and sensual art with her main medium being paper. She earned a Master's degree at the University of Mannheim and Karlsruhe. ​ "I explore various aspects of femininity and female identity in my paintings. My inspiration are personal stories of women I encountered, but also female characters in mythology, film, and literature. They are a new, powerful, and emancipated approach of one’s identity and sexuality, and at the same time they stand for empowerment for all women. For a long time only men have painted women, neglecting their personal stories of ambivalence, trauma and multifaceted nature, but it is time that women change the narrative and capture their unique stories by contributing to a new, empowered expression of elevated femininity." Lena has exhibited internationally, and has been published in several art and lifestyle magazines around the world. The award-winning artist is also editor of the international art magazine Goddessarts Magazine.
