women and painting: part 1
LOIE HOLLOWELL
DRAWING ON HER OWN BODY AND EXPERIENCES, THE BROOKLYN-BASED ARTIST INTERPRETS THE FEMALE FORM IN SYMMETRICAL, ETHEREAL PAINTINGS AND DRAWINGS.
“I can only speak for myself, but being able to depict my experiences of being in a female body through topics as wide-ranging as having sex, getting pregnant, giving birth, breastfeeding,
and postpartum depression — and having that subject matter taken seriously within the cultural dialogue of painting — is a crucial transformation that allows my work to exist authentically.”
