#doubleRepost @sdcushing from @senntastic ・・・ My latest piece for @artandcakela is on Cecilia Paredes @ceciliaparedesart. I got the amazing opportunity to interview her about her recent exhibition at @molaaart, thanks to @saltfineart. She is one of my favorite contemporary artists and I was honored to speak with her and write about her. - - - “Although history has shown us the significance of self-portraits to our collective humanity and the personal spirit, there are not many contemporary artists that specialize in self-portraits anymore, and even fewer that do it with as much creativity, relativity, and soul as Peruvian artist, Cecilia Paredes. She is well-known for utilizing her body as a canvas, as she paints herself into the backgrounds of fabrics, wallpapers, furniture, rooms, forests, and deserts. At first, the emphasis in her work seems as though it is the figure’s body blending in, but upon further inspection the ulterior focus becomes clear. She never completely blends in, and in this way she stands out. The act of decorating the body with its surroundings seems to highlight the edges that separate the body and the background even more. With painstaking detail, she recreates gorgeous patterns and the subtle nuances of becoming. The overlapping areas, the gesture, the movement, these subtle details are poetic prose of the humanity in her faceless renditions of herself...” - - - Read the whole article and interview with Paredes on artandcakela.com! - - - - #ceciliaparedes #molaa #artandcakela #artandcake #selfportrait #selportraiture #performances #bodyart #bodypainting #blending #blendingin #art #pattern #camouflage #fineart #figurativeart #suggestive #background #becoming #peruvianartist #saltfineart

#Repost @shananys one of our wonderful #artandcake writers! ・・・ Repost from @arttableinc - Today's ArtTable Member Monday is Shana Nys Dambrot! Shana is the Arts Editor at the L.A. Weekly which keeps her pretty occupied, but she is really proud of the work they’ve done there. . Shana also is a huge fan of LA's many amazing indie art magazines that are also doing great things, and she loves the opportunities at Artillery, Art & Cake, and Flaunt. . . Here is something no one really knows yet -- in early 2019 Shana will be publishing her first work of fiction, the novella “Zen Psychosis,” a cognitive memoir told through dreams and accompanied by original photographs by Osceola Refetoff. . #congratulations Shana! Say hi to Shana at @shananys! /// 📸: EMS @ericminhswenson . #womenlead #atmembermonday #womeninthearts @laweekly @artandcakela @flauntmagazine @ospix
