ANIKA BOOKER ⸻ A COLLECTION OF ART

I. SOFT MELANCHOLY

Three paintings describing her nightmares. The loss of people and the loss of herself. The past — a fundamentally hostile place. The present — a constant longing for a way out.

An army of ghosts — acrylics/ framed canvas 32 x 24 Ophelia — acrylics/ framed canvas 24 x 18 Escape — acrylics/ framed canvas 40 x 30

II. METAMORPHOSIS The slow transition from woman to monster. The past versions of herself sloughing off like dead skin.

Medusa — watercolor/ framed canvas 24 x 30 Moss — watercolor/ framed canvas 24 x 30

III. EVAPORATE

Two people that have wordlessly dispersed into the air. She’d argue they were ever there in the first place. All real people on that canvas are fictional, only the fictional are real. Sometimes she wants to wordlessly disperse into the air too. (@reidhalstead)
