Cecilia Beaven
"Turtle's Landscape 1" Large Abstract Contemporary Biomorphic Landscape Painting

2018

About the Item

Colorful abstract painting of a surreal otherworldly blue toned dream landscape. This piece was recently included in the artist's solo show titled "Two-Headed Turtle" in Chicago. Cecilia Beaven draws upon her early life in Mexico City as well as her own personal introspection to create a narrative in which intriguing and absurd mythical creatures explore the fictional landscape of the artist's inner world. Three pieces available in this series. Please inquire for group pricing. Artist Biography: Cecilia Beaven is a visual artist from Mexico City, currently based in Chicago. Besides keeping a studio practice, Cecilia is a part-time instructor at SAIC; Beaven teaches the college-level course Comics: Graphic Narrative, that she created for the Painting and Drawing Department. Cecilia holds an MFA in Studio from SAIC, which she coursed as a Fulbright scholar, and a BFA with honors from ENPEG La Esmeralda (Mexico City). During the summer of 2019 Cecilia was awarded the Summer Fellowship at Ox-Bow School of Art, in Saugatuck, Michigan. Through her work, that includes painting -with a particular fascination for big scale projects-, drawing, animation, film and sculpture, Cecilia develops a speculative mythology with unique visual narratives. Cecilia’s artwork has been shown in solo shows in Mexico City, Houston and Chicago, as well as in group exhibitions in Mexico, the US, Colombia, Sweden, Italy and Japan. She has also painted murals in several cities such as Mexico City, Oaxaca, Pachuca, Tepoztlan, Houston, Chicago, Paris, Hiketa and Tijuana, where she was commissioned to paint a segment of the border wall between Mexico and the US.

    "Lone Star, True But Whatever There was I time when I ached for the world. Before cell phones, before social media, I felt the urgency of environmental damage, of social injustice. Nothing seems to have gotten better. I'm not numb to it, but in some way I've become flip, a resigned humor like a layer of scar tissue between my concerns and the abrasion all around. Still, I was surprised how playful these paintings became. Disasters intertwine: Urns, much like the one that held my twin sister's ashes, a familial disaster, come to the forefront, variations of childhood memory. Images from photos I took in Port Aransas...
