Natural Woman
Craving nature, feeling anti-technology, craving authenticity, resenting clocks and calendars and dresscodes, imagining living off the land, channeling ancestors, craving trees and fruit, and fresh air.
Mango Fandango
INSPIRATION
Mangoes are always special.
Fancy. Soft. Sweet. Round.
Celebratory and luxurious.
So this is what I infused in the figures, tones, and shapes.
It feels warm and sweet and happy.
I learned so much about mangoes doing this painting.
Eg.
🥭The paisley pattern on bandanas originates from mangoes.
🥭The leaves from a mango tree are believed to repel negative energy and attract prosperity and fertility in India where the mango is believed to originate.
ARTWORK
The starting point was the heads of the women, which followed an exact formation of mangoes hanging on a tree. Everything went from this point.
I used the colours of mangoes: orange, yellow, red, green, coral, purple. Tropical, sweet and glowy.
I used the curvy shapes of oval mangoes, long pointy leaves, and delicate long red stems laden with pale yellow tiny mango flowers.
Metallic colours of gold and copper added luxe and celebration.
This is the story of Mango Fandango.
(I used fandango in the sense of fun, party and dance).
Villanelle
Playing with poetry structure and paint using Samoan markings.
These small paintings about poetry are inspired by the huge paintings (pic 6) I created for the VIP Lounge at Faleolo International Airport.
The villanelle originated in Italian and Spanish folk songs and in the late nineteenth century, the French began to form the villanelle into a more fixed poetry structure of nineteenth lines: 5 lots of 3, and concluding with a set of 4 lines.
Me Time
This painting is about trying to capture the individual experience of looking inside for clarity and truth and looking outside for strength or inspiration.
I painted it as I was learning to meditate.
An unlikely sources of artistic inspiration in this depiction of a Samoan woman is mosque architecture.
Visiting the Seamstress | Alu I le Su’isu’i
Going to your seamstress for a new dress or puletasi, choosing your material, being measured all over your body, hearing feedback about your measurements, discussing the design, discussing the event… it’s a whole thing.
#ifykyk
That’s what this painting is about.
Cinquain
Playing with poem structure, paint, and Samoan markings.
Small paintings inspired by the 7 metre by 2 metre works (pic 6) I created for the VIP Terminal Lounge at Faleolo International Airport.
The cinquain poem was invented by an American poet, and she drew inspiration from Japanese forms such as haiku and tanka, which are arranged in five lines. The cinquain has a syllable count of 2- 4 – 6 – 8 – 2.
