About the Item
In this series, Audrey Anastasi has shifted her focus away from naturalistic domestic settings to a dark, enigmatic, and some might say, unsettling, place. These figures could be heros and heroines of Greek tragedy, or mythic characters caught in Promethean struggle, or simply beautiful, floating, lost souls confronting only their own inner demons. No matter their identity, they are found in a well of deep emotion…
And, as in all her paintings since 1990, these works were painted with her left (non-dominant) hand.
