‘I could connect to your dolls and feel really grateful to have my baby’s photo to be part of your exhibition. It is so wonderful. I feel your work bring people connecting to the universe much closer, like the moons’

Exhibition of paintings and photos in Muswell Hill, London UK

I opened last Tuesday 16 June an exhibition of some of my paintings and photos inspired by  Dreams and a Heart project. I am happy to have them framed, they look pretty on the wall.

The exhibition is running in a very cozy space in Muswell Hill.

Paintings inspired by the dolls

IMG_1729

This is one of the first paintings of the series inspired by the dolls. I painted them in January and February 2013 when I started  making dolls more regularly. In March 2013 I started the series ‘Threads’ which I have been developing up to this moment.

These paintings, pen on paper,  reminds us bones, stones, teeth, eggs, light…

The moon was approaching my paintings as well, in some of them it appears almost full. It took me over a year to realize it.

When I cut papers to make full moons necklaces and place them over each other, they bring me these paintings.

Recently I also realised that when the dolls are queuing they look like our back bones, our vertebrae. You can visit Vertebrae page. The last painting of this series shows a sequence that reminds us vertebrae as well. I called it vertebrae houses.

I am amazed with all connections.

Full moon and paintings inspired by the dolls

The moon was approaching me through my paintings as well.

I didn’t notice while I was painting them almost two years ago.

When I cut papers to make full moons and place them over each other, they remind us my paintings inspired by the dolls.

It was all there. I can see now.
