About the Item
In "Nude Woman Seated," a 40" x 30" oil on wood panel by Shana Wilson, there is an intimate portrayal of vulnerability and quiet strength. The artist employs a soft, earth-toned palette, with shades of warm beige, muted greens, and accents of coral, to craft the figure’s delicate form. Wilson's loose, confident brushstrokes lend a raw, textured quality, while the interplay of light and shadow captures the natural curves of the human body. The solitary figure, caught in a moment of repose, exudes a contemplative air, inviting viewers to reflect on the complexities of the human form and the subtle narratives contained within stillness.
About the Artist:
Over seven billion souls exist on this planet, each with a unique face and story. Shana transfers her visceral love for the human landscape to canvas, tenderly cradling its peaks and valleys, darkness and light, colors and neutrals, empty and full, hard edges and soft curves. Each brush stroke creates a controlled cacophony as it assembles the intricate jigsaw of the human face. An entire life’s journey is written on this human landscape; a journey that begs to be documented and treasured. Shana’s legacy project is to paint inspirational women from all walks of life, inclusive of all cultures and orientations. The subjects all have one thing in common; the ability to inspire and create social change. She pays tribute to them on canvas, painting a long overdue celebration of trail-blazing women. Visit any major gallery or museum in the world and it is teeming with paintings of nude women in states of subservience to erotica. Contrast this with the paintings of clothed men in states of strength and power. These are the images school children see on their field trips. We MUST flip this artistic marginalization on its head. The art world must work quickly and diligently to change the balance of how women are portrayed on canvas.
