So her expo has been open for a week and a half now.. well just about. And I've been thinking about her works, about her really, this persona she's built around her. Quite extraordinary. She's like the WonderWoman of dolls, tits and stuff... And she looks fab, definitely plays the part - dressing up to the nines (literally) - always in frills, super high heels which any normal woman would envy, at least because of her extraordinary capabilities at keeping balance, luminous red lipstick. She's quite a diva, and she could become a bit of an icon if the US didn't already have way too many of those.
Anyways... her works, well I must admit to finding them quite alluring, but I don't want to expand too much because I'm just about concluding a review which will be appearing on Thursday's Times (little inside yay for my second week with an art column. But she is quite fascinating, albeit a tad dark... but that's how we like 'em.
Anyways here's a couple of piccies to get the buzz flowing - not that there's much need cause there's already been SO much published about her! Thankfully nothing came in the form of a review... here's hoping I won't get the usual hate mail. Buuuut, who cares right?
She's an extraordinary woman with an eye for beauty and a continual longing for her own personal existence in a changing world.
ReplyDeleteShe hides nothing of herself in her art: confronting her own, new, and rapidly changing, emotions - she's the epitome of femininity yet she is also in control; she sometimes immerses herself into her world of uncertainty, yet this is never for long, recovering as fast as she fell into this realm of thought; she is in touch with her sexuality yet questions its role in society; and while she can be submissive she will always be the one with the last say, or will quietly acknowledge the answer alone before being on the look out for the next self discovery.
Pat, as a person, is an elegant woman, and as a friend, she is with an unwavering heart of gold. She has been a joy to work with and I am so pleased that she has been in focus for so long on this tiny island of Malta. I look forward to seeing her and her dolls continue their journey around the globe, to grace others with their presence... PK, we miss you & your omnipotent energy, and warmth of a presence! X
