About the Item
Galatea 10 is a vibrant C-Type Print on Fujiflex Paper in an Edition of 9 + 2 Artist Proof with Dimensions of 100cm x 150cm.
Surrounded by luscious fruits and vital lilies, the female protagonist of this contemporary reinterpretation of the Greek myth of Pygmalion and Galatea gazes off-screen with glazed look in her shiny, viridian eyes.
Her glossy cherry-red lips attract the viewer's eye with their brash sexuality, while the soft beige and roseate areolae, which peeks out from behind a bold and vibrant display of gelatinous liquid cocktail and flamingo pink stargazer lily.
The soft and rounded edges of the tableau add to the sensuality of the scene.
Photography duo Tortora
Travezan create vibrant portraits that combine nude and still life. David Tortora and Jaime Travezan met in London in 2006, where both were pursuing creative careers. Following their first collaboration on fashion editorials and portraiture, they soon presented their first fine art photography project, "Galatea".
The series "Galatea" takes its name from the Greek myth, Pygmalion. According to legend, the sculptor (Pygmalion) fell in love with a statue he had carved (Galatea) that in turn fell in love with the sculptor when brought to life by Aphrodite. The series is an homage to the work of Tom Wesselmann. The compositions pay tribute to the American pop artist with a contemporary, hyper-real re-interpretation of his iconic early Seventies ‘Bedroom Paintings’ series.
All prints produced to order and shipped unframed.
