Then the clouds will open
Painting, Fantasy / Visionary, Oil, 146x176x3cm
The work "Then the clouds will open" concerns the analysis of depersonalizing effects caused by modern aesthetic ideals.
A sexy doll with a diaphanous face and a mischievous erotic charge mocks the hedonistic emptiness of borderline looks and lifestyles and caricatures the current standards of women’s beauty, symbols of a Western culture, fully devoted to the commodification of the body.
The body loses every human trait and takes the form of a plastic puppet: an aesthetic standard imposed by the mass media, which promote an image of bodily perfection that more and more teen-agers aspire to, often surgically altering their bodies to resemble plastic dolls.
