CELEBRITIES
Beautifully imperfects
Beautifully imperfects
Marie-Lou Desmeules is an artist who uses pure pigment to transform living models into bizarre sculptures of surreal celebrity lookalikes. Her work refers in particular to plastic surgery which often for some reason or another, didn’t exactly go as anticipated. We can read in her work a veiled complaint to reality television, which imposed this kind of beauty.
Arianna Cordeschi
I paint and sculpt people into celebrities, historical figures & modern archetypes mimicking plastic surgery in a distorted way. Rather than operating with a scalpel, botox and implants, I transform my patients with brushes, acrylic paint, old fabrics and packaging leftover. The ephemeral makeovers are transformed into artworks, thanks to staged photography & video.
