Blue Room (Leda and The Swan) - by Jeremy Wolf (USA)
Oil stick & acrylic on canvas, 36" x 48". 2017.
Jeremy : "A pink sex doll-like figure reclines on a bed with a swan approaching from between its legs while a third figure lords over them, possibly directing the encounter and filming it.
The disparate images and strange narrative lend to the general uneasiness of the image for me.
Much of my figurative work explores themes of identity, power dynamics, and relationships between persons and groups. Recent paintings continue to react to the seismic shifts in the current American political landscape, the subsequent effect on society in and outside of the United States, and the changing concept of what it means, and has meant, to be an American both at home and abroad.
American moral authority and influence has waned across the globe with the rise of neo-conservative and then alt-right views in the mainstream body politic. By blurring the lines between truth and falsehood, these actors have created a society of mutual distrust and suspicion. I try in my work to capture and reflect on the resultant layers of disappointment, fear, and exhaustion present in these times."
