Original artwork description:
The full title of the painting is: 'Imagine The Things I'm Afraid Of'. The painting was inspired by Monica Vitti as Giuliana in Michelangelo Antonioni's psychological film 'Red Desert' of 1964. A film noted for it's themes of contemporary alienation in a technological age. This was the director, Antonioni's, first colour film; he said he wanted to shoot the film 'like a painting on a canvas'.
Seemed appropriate to paint part of a scene from the film on canvas....
(Michelangelo Antonioni (1912 – 2007) was a prominent Italian film director known for his distinctive cinematic style. His innovative approach to filmmaking has had a significant impact on world art cinema.)
Sal Jones is a London-based artist residing in Hackney, known for her figurative oil paintings. She employs gestural mark making techniques to produce expressive and atmospheric artworks. While her focus is primarily on portraiture, her work challenges and transcends traditional stereotypes associated with the genre, offering a fresh perspective on the subject.
