Wetterling Gallery proudly presents a retrospective exhibition by Nathalia Edenmont. Piece of Me is curated around the many self-portraits she continuously has created over the past two decades. Opening Reception will take place Thursday, May 27 from 5 - 8 PM.
Nathalia Edenmont's art is deeply personal and exceptionally brave. Through her own dramatic life story, she explores the great questions of life. In the exhibition, we get to follow the artist through her life's different events and traumas: miscarriages, infertility, death and fear. In the portrayal of herself as a child, she uses a muse with undeniable similarities to Edenmont's own features. With art historical references, Edenmont also takes on the role of the Madonna, the mother, and a queen. Her expression is steadfastly consistent with a palpable stillness. The motifs seam to float in a timeless vacuum.
