Zen (L'une 58) * 48.4 x 36.6 inches (2018)Mixed-media painting by Catalin Ilinca

portrait of a Korean girl, dressed in Hanbok (a Korean traditional dress), approached in an organic, gestural, abstract style

What is the meaning of L'une ?

It is a double meaning word. I found it appropriate for this series; in French it means "the one" (she), and "Lune" - moon.

It's a moody portraits series, where I want to express the fragility and beauty of the woman features, by trying to capture a moment, an impression. They seem reflexive, or day dreaming, or maybe slipping into a melancholic, undefined mood.


- the exact size is 123 x 93 cm / 48.4 x 36.6 inches.
- I applied to it more isolating layers of gloss final varnish.
- it has about 6-7 cm (2.5 inches) extra white margin on the edges, in order to be stretched on wooden frame later on.


===============
It will be shipped rolled, in a hard tube. I recommend taking the artwork to a professional framer, in order to have it re-stretched.
