MÒNICA SUBIDÉ AND "TERESA’S WINGS"
August 2023
A series of new portraits and still lives line the gallery walls, each work seeking to reveal the recognition of individuality within the simplest contours of Subidé’s figures or scenes. With this body of work, the artist focuses on the emotive possibilities of painting, creating contemplative and placid scenes that reveal complex emotional truths. From her muted color palettes to her unfinished lines and quasi-cubist approach to shading, Subidé paints in a style that recalls the work of Lucien Freud, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, and Pablo Picasso, whose portraits of his lover Marie-Thérèse provides inspiration for Subidé’s From Marie Thérèse (all works 2023).
