About the Item
Four (4) original individual drawings depicting the complete suit of playing cards. (Diamond): Infanta Vida y Muerte, (Heart): Infanta Viento Frio, (Club): Infanta Conocimiento and (Spade): Infanta a Flote. Each drawing is created with graphite pencil on Kent paper, and is 14 x 10 inches and professionally framed measuring 21.5 x 17.25 inches. Okada's oil paintings drawings are mysterious, provocative, alluring, haunting and beautiful.
Chikako Okada’s autobiographical works of art bridge traditional realism with magical realism and surrealism. The artist uniquely addresses questions of the human condition through her meticulously detailed, and patterned imagery. The mesmerizing work is rich in symbolism and references feminine power, vulnerability, sadness, longing, and desire. Often featuring adolescent girls and boys that are mysteriously posed, the artist leaves the circumstances of her subjects to the viewer's interpretation. Chikako Okada is inspired by the paintings of European masters, Mexico's Frida Kahlo, and the American surrealists.
Educated in Japan and the United States. Okada received her BS and MFA at San Francisco's Art Institute (SFAI). She has exhibited internationally over a 30-year period. Her paintings and drawings are collected worldwide.
