Description
Another piece in my new series "Lost in Translation." Most of the other pieces the women have hair so I was going with a bald look in this one XD. The shapes of heads are actually kind of hard to pull off, I now realize how I just cover them up with hair... who knows what deformities lie under it O_o Do you think the explosions of color are her hair? Or the background? Or maybe ideas... I don't know.

This series was inspired by my time spent studying abroad, displaying my anxiety and culture shock from not understanding the visiting country's language. This is why they are missing mouths- a barrier and inability to communicate. The series was installed in a very dark and tiny, narrow space in the gallery to create the feeling of claustrophobia, another feeling I had to combat with. Finally, they were set really high upon the walls so they were "looking down on you", making the viewer feel small and insignificant amidst a sea of disapproving figures.

Really? 18 x 24 in. Watercolor
