Miss Van
Glamorous Darkness

London

Miss Van currently presents her latest body of work at London-based StolenSpace Gallery. Entitled Glamorous Darkness, it maintains the signature aesthetic of her ‚poupées‘ (dolls), yet evoking a darker poetic mood. Magical and dreamy, her muses pose in an ambient nature, singing or interacting with each other. They emerge from their loosely painted backgrounds like visions or dreams. The colours Miss Van has used in these paintings also adds to the dream like quality, some bright and vivid, some softer, more natural. The masks are still the main elements, her characters are adorned with masquerade-style, animal-like masks, adding mystery and strength. Some with bird like beaks almost like protection to their delicate features, a sharp contrast to their soft sensual curves.
