Four women in 18th-century dresses pose outside a palace. They wear wigs and masks, sport heavy, garish makeup, and appear to be melting—much like the architectural elements around them.
The artist creates scenes rich in color, texture, and humor. Through her work, she explores and satirizes the idealization of luxury and leisure in art history. Her paintings feature lavish domestic interiors, stately country homes, and idyllic natural settings, with figures dressed in finery and engaged in banquets and festivities. Yet, within these compositions, the figures appear faceless or as eerie creatures fused with their semi-abstract, richly painted surroundings.
