About the Item

Far from referring to the gothic, or melancholic aspect that fascinates some people in these anatomical model, Dominique Yee (b. 1960), a Flemish painter with Chinese roots, has captured the human expression of the model in a series of 4 large acrylic paintings. The paintings are square, 120 x 120 cm, and focus on a part of the face of the gorilla. The paintings catch the expression of the model in broad, assured brushstrokes. The colors match those of the original very well without replicating them. The painting technique of Mrs Yee is direct and each stroke is final. The result is fresh and immediate. In her paintings Mrs. Yee has accomplished something remarkable: she has managed to breathe life into a representation of one of the first Troglodytes gorilla’s captured. Dated 2014.
