About the Item

CAROLINA GOMEZ Ruby from the Mirror Stone series 40 x 30 inches - Unique OIL ON CANVAS Carolina Gomez’s works have become known for the powerful questions they pose about personal female identity and society’s views towards women. The paintings focus on the female pop culture icon, impeccably recreated on canvas with oil and with what one might consider the most important part of the icon, the face, hidden. However, the icon’s face is not simply hidden with just anything but with precious gems of all sorts; diamonds, quarts, topazes, rubies, etc. The gems themselves take on a life of their own because of their commanding vividness and technical precision. This selection features an array of figurative paintings and collages from her latest series “Mirror Stone”: an exploration concerned with the intersection of power, beauty, and fashion through the juxtaposition of pop culture icons and precious gems.
