About The Artwork

We each have a gift to give others- we each hold a cure that others need— a gift that can empower others become the best version of themselves. There is power in sharing your gifts. Your gift can be your ability to make important art, to write moving words, to express love and compassion, or to be a good friend or family member. It may be to help others unlock the gifts they have inside them that they don’t believe exist. There is more to this existence than we have the ability to fathom. Many of us wake up each day feeling that something in this life is missing, is not met, is lacking. We search aimlessly, externally to fill this need. Some have found it, some will find it late in life. Your gift lives within your authentic self- the person you were born to be. It is realized once you share it with the world. . . Picasso gave us his gift- his authentic self- I stole his vision and recreated it through my own eyes. . . Modern Demoiselles, acrylic on canvas, 36x48, 2019

Elisa Valenti is a self-taught contemporary figurative painter whose works delight in the beauty and vigor of real, luscious bodies. Valenti’s paintings are a sensuous celebration of form. Voluptuous figures reach, twist and revel in a Fauvist dance across the canvas, honoring their vessels. The bodies Valenti paints serve as a looking glass for those whose own bodies have been underrepresented in modern and contemporary art. Growing up in a culture where body-positivity did not yet exist and worthiness could only be equated with thinness, it wasn’t until Valenti started painting bodies that looked like hers that her journey of self love began. Utilizing arresting colors evocative of the Fauves and Cubist color-blocking, Valenti adapts two iconic styles pioneered by men and flips the gaze inward. As well, she draws inspiration from her mother’s career as a lingerie sample-maker and master dress maker, venerating the celestial mounds and valleys of the female form. Each brushstroke highlighting the curve of a hip or roll of flesh is an act of defiance – a celebration of radical worthiness.
