Manage episode 402528597 series 2903676
Surrealist artist Amie Pascal brings a queer lens to portraying and challenging representations of the body, blurring lines between reality and imagination while juxtaposing abject body horror with beauty. Her work expresses a universal rawness from a queer woman’s disabled embodiment in her new series ‘A Body Apart.’
Some of the things we discussed
- 00:10:11 - How the pandemic and long COVID changed her art
- 00:18:21 - The use of vintage anatomical illustrations as reference material and the reclamation of marginalized bodies
- 00:20:56 - Inspiration from filmmakers and women surrealists
- 00:27:03 - The "real world" as a liminal and surreal space
- 00:33:07 - Music pairings for each painting
Paintings we discussed specifically
Dead Ringer I & Dead Ringer II (the other two paintings that feature L'Ange Anatomique)
We Dare to Breathe (mentioned as "the heart and lungs")
Moments of Clarity Are So Rare (mentioned as "the head with all of the veins")
