I see a Premonition (25)
受取は現在不可能です
Description
The works in this series are appropriation of the famous paintings of beautiful women from Baroque and mostly Rococo periods including the maids, queens, princesses and muses alike. Heaven or Earth, theåÊobjectification of the woman is always there. The reason to choose the western paintings is how we fantasize the beauty of white women with flawless, hairless skin and tender breasts (the prominent features of the paintings from that era, also the attributes of the Hoor narrated by different scholars).
Tanveer has deliberately removed the bodily features of the painted women into white (referring the white skin like bright moon) and shredded the work and reassembled it to question the narration of the beauty with distortion.
