@modupeola.fadugba, “Pink Lake: The One Who Looked Back” 🏊🏾‍♀️ Acrylic, oil, pencil and ink on burned paper 144"× 60" (triptych) 2017 In Synchronized Swimmers, I unite my swimmers as a team, where they cluster into human towers to lift one of their members into the sky. I think people immediately notice the blank faces as a departure from previous works, but the hairstyles and black bathing suits quickly identify them as a team with a common purpose. I've introduced a Millennial Pink as the liquid backdrop for many of the works, referencing the Pink Lake (Lac Rose) in Senegal (whose salt content is so high that it would render these stunts virtually impossible). This limitation adds an element of the unbelievable and fantastical to the work. And I think that the uncommon representation of a group of black women in a pool- together- adds yet another dimension to the work's interpretation. As for the one who looked back, I still wonder what she's looking at/for? . . #supportblackart #modupeolafadugba #pinklake #theonewholookedback #millennialpink #pinklakesenegal #synchronizedswimmers #triptych #artonpaper #womenartists #artvisuals #abstractart #blackgirlmagic #lacrose #fineart ##synchronizedswimmers #artist_features #artonig #artgram #artdaily #artisttowatch #artoninstagram
