Victoria Reynolds' oil paintings and drawings of raw meat deconstruct the idea of preparing flesh for the purpose of consumption. The meats stop being pieces of meat and become biological masses, alluring in their regular, almost crystal-like structure. The works elicit a visceral reaction of disgust, but after the initial shock, they pull the viewer in for a closer inspection of their meticulously painted details.

Sirio Sirio es un perro lobo singular: no tiene una vista de lince, y es bastante patoso pero, gracias a las técnicas desarrolladas por Thomas Trelone, posee la inteligencia y la sensibilidad de una persona. Criado en la Gales rural por la esposa del científico, crece aislado del resto del mundo contando con una sola amiga: Plaxy, la hija del matrimonio. Cuando los separan para que ella asista a la escuela y él se inicie en el pastoreo, Sirio tomará conciencia de su condición única. Esta le valdrá un sinfín de limitaciones y desengaños, condenado a la soledad absoluta, como un perpetuo extraño tanto para los humanos como para los demás perros. A causa de innumerables presiones, demandas y/o amenazas de inquisidores digitales (grupos editoriales y representantes legales), desde el 13-05-17, me veo obligado a dejar de compartir toda clase de archivos que incluyan e-libros . Si algún autor o dueño de derechos, se siente perjudicado por este paupérrimo blog, por favor avísenme y prometo desincorporar sus datos en forma inmediata... GRACIAS. @níb@l 2017

Artist Ekaterina Panikanova creates densely layered paintings using old books and other documents as her canvas. Her work ranges somewhere between painting, installation and collage. The ink and acrylic paintings often show nostalgic scenes mixed with images of cakes, animals and vintage items. We’d actually like to know if there is a connection between the […]
