The Frida series, is a portrait series of Frida Kahlo.
The Frida Bill Board works are composed with three different colours; red, pink and sepia while the Pop series show vivid pop art inspired colours.
As in the original black and white photograph, the works show a challenging, defiant and proud woman. Frida Kahlo is represented as both strong and scarred.
Portraits in this series are constructed with different colour compositions. These compositions are torn and recomposed in order to create the final portrait. Each work is unique and original.
Inspired by Andy Warhol’s portrait series, each work is based on one identical image. Unlike screen-print, the Bill Board series is produced with reproduction techniques that make each composition unique and original.
The images are mirrored, enlarged and printed, then transferred onto canvas and finished with pastels. Rough lines and torn edges, remind the viewer of a worn vintage bill board or poster, yet the overall impression is tranquil and soft.
Nearly all works in this series have been sold but COMMISSIONS are possible !!!
