Magical realism in the couloir bleu

BEATRIZ Ledesma art exhibit march & april

Picture
Faithful to her Latin American Argentine) roots, the artist, Beatriz E Ledesma,  presents a vivid exhibition of oil paintings that explore the individual and collective unconscious.   "...An object becomes symbolic of a dream, a memory, a fiber of my imagination. My attention to painting is that of a focused researcher utilizing my inner dialogue and the connection with the world around me as the library from where to bring forward images."
The works on display during March and April are drawn from two larger series--mostly from  "Not Quite There Yet" and from "Personal Belongings."
The artist's statement for Not Quite There Yet  follows:
"In the “civilized madness” of war, hate, decadent religion, chaos and destruction,  my  consulting room for patients, led me to think more  about the internal aspect of safety in a chaotic world.  ...  What does it mean to be safe? How do we construct a safe inner space? How do we feel internally safe where everything we have taken for granted seems to be threatened?
Not Quite There Yet is my contribution to the interaction between outer and inner worlds. It explores our attempts to find a safe space in a world of chaos and destruction.
The canvas is divided into two sections representing  inner and outer worlds.  The outer section is an ethereal depiction of chaos -- rough strokes and poignant dark needles alluding to our wounded outer world. The inner window is clear, representing a self-reflecting, intuitive and spiritual space where awareness and imagination dare to transcend our greedy, ego-based mentality that is destroying our wonderful planet.
The work proposes a spiritual path establishing balance and awareness in our dear planet."
