Isabelle de Brito – Pippi + Pleiadian Art Exhibition, Spårvägsmuséet, Stockholm 2017
This mural was created for the Exhibition “Isabelle de Brito – Pippi + Pleiadian” at Spårvägsmuseet in, Stockholm, in 2017. Painted in spray paint and acrylic, and built during the process without a planned out sketch. A woman surrounded by movement, light, shifting colour, who stays still within it.
The eyes were the starting idea. I worked to build up the surroundings to create a sphere for the face to move in. Layer by layer with spray paint, warm yellow pushing through cool blue and deep shadow. The wall and the paint. She looks out from the middle of all that energy, grounded and clear-eyed. That was the sense I wanted to catch from the beginning.
