Orange Mistress Painting

“Orange Mistress” is made with acrylic on paper and is visually inspired by old posters of space movies and how they depict women. In my artwork I intended to focus again on the shiny optics – that is why I decided to make all the work in a latex-like environment, including the dress. I am not afraid of portraying sexy, lascivious woman in provoking latex dresses because I feel that emancipation should also show strong females that are openly dealing with their sexuality, lust or even fetish. I chose orange for her dress because it combines the signal color red and the rather rational yellow. Orange means vitality, joy, carefreeness, and exotic liveliness – which is exactly what I want my female in the center to be and feel. Women should feel free in their sexuality and not oppressed. While they are enjoying this freedom, however, they should remain in control – that is why my female figure is a “Mistress”, and not in any form a subordinate. The transparent look is equally a metaphor for being "transparent" with yourself and with your own sexuality. The woman and the whole setting are not only "transparent" for the observer, but also to emphasize that the female figure is able to share or show what she wants. She is not naked though because although transparency is given she does not fully have to disclose herself thereby preserving a certain control.
