I hope I live long enough to see Sandra Chevrier paint a non-traditionally attractive woman. interesting point, considering that she often explains her pieces as a way of empowering women with the super heroes and all that, would make a whole lot of sense to paint all types of women |

"The aesthetics are important to me, but without a social message it isnโt worth anything. The series I am working on at the moment is about women trying to find freedom from the cages of societyโs twisted preconceptions of what a woman should or shouldnโt be. By doing so, society is asking them to be superheroes.
My Cages are made with brash imposing paint or comic books which mask the identity of a female human and symbolize the struggle that women go through every day. Being trapped within the expectations of false beauty and perfection, women are held captive by the limitations forced upon them by society and culture. This series is meant to show how corrupted our perception of beauty has become. Our modern ideas of what we consider beautiful has become distorted and we fail to see what truly makes women beautiful by putting them in these prisons of identity."
And she can paint what she likes, and I totally get the desire to paint the attractive, the aesthetically beautiful, the symmetrical and, sure, I can see that "the market" might want "pretty" women on their walls, but I would really love to see more......ordinary....representation of women in art. And, don't get me wrong, I realise I am in a precarious position of potentially being misconstrued as a guy telling a woman artist what to paint, however, I don't think it does a good service to keep putting images of supermodels out there, while at the same time saying society shouldn't reinforce this distorted view of what's beautiful. Because otherwise, it does start to look like you just want to keep painting pretty images of pretty women that sell pretty well.

Sandra Chevrier X Shepard Fairey 17th July, by irl1 on Jul 14, 2020 19:42:27 GMT 1, We are super excited to announce a second print launch, this one based on the original mural that was created by sandrachevrier X obeygiant (Shepard Fairey) last march , it is the largest mural in Austin, Texas and was made to honour the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment. You might have seen this mural that was curated by Station16 for the occasion. Due to popular demand, we have created a second print based on this piece. The print will be available for purchase Friday 17th at noon (EST). It is an edition of 500 signed and numbered by both artists. .
If you happen to be in Austin, make sure to go check the largest mural of the city at Thelinehotel!
This whole project was made possible by Downtown Austin Alliance for Writing on The Walls. A portion of sales will go to Downtown Austin Alliance to help support further artistic endeavours in Austin.
The year 2020 marks the 100th anniversary of the passage of the 19th Amendment, guaranteeing and protecting women's constitutional right to vote. This historic centennial offers an unparalleled opportunity to commemorate a milestone of democracy and to explore its relevance to the issues of equal rights today. The Women's Vote Centennial Initiative, a collaboration of women-centered institutions, organizations, and scholars from across the US, works to ensure that this anniversary, and the 72-year fight to achieve it, are commemorated and celebrated throughout the United States.

Sandra Chevrier X Shepard Fairey 17th July, by mrizzle on Jul 14, 2020 21:16:10 GMT 1, I guess itโs not a lot of money but Iโm also really disappointed that this was the collaboration that they announced. Somewhat anticlimactic and feels like a quick way to make $55k. I donโt even see it as a terribly good photograph and selective use of colour like that is a bit naff (he says sounding like his own mother).
