Lauren Rinaldi
I Felt Like You Died, I Died

2018

About the Item

This is an original oil painting on panel by Lauren Rinaldi. The piece ships in the pictured black frame and measures 6in x 5in. Lauren Rinaldi's work inhabits the space where objectification, female power and sexual empowerment intersect and blur. She uses oil paintings, mixed media drawings and sketches as her vehicles to explore ideas about intimacy, gaze, body-image, sexuality and self-Identity. She looks to the women in her life for inspiration and works to weave their experiences with her own to create a shared narrative. Through observing the nature of women seeking affirmation under the guise of anonymity online, she also is informed by the influence social media has on female identity and how detachment from the depictions of the reality of the self affects and reveals who women desire to be. Lauren was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1983. She received her BFA in Painting from Tyler School of Art in 2006. She is represented by Paradigm Gallery + Studio in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and currently resides in Philadelphia with her husband and son.

    The beauty in the painting comes from the use of light and texture. Each figure is clothed as if for a night clubbing in sequins, jewel encrusted brazier, and silver hot-pants, all bathed in blue and red light which catches on their skin and clothing.

  • Untitled - After Rembrandt's Susanna and the Elders, Original Oil on Panel
    Located in Chicago, IL
    This painting was inspired by Rembrandt's "Susanna and the Elders", especially Simon Schama's commentary on it, and the Me Too Movement. It depicts a vulnerable woman looking at the viewer, the male figure was derived from an Italian fascist sculpture. Rembrandt's painting depicts only one elder. It is assumed the other elder (or voyeur) is the viewer. This painting also contains references to global warming, surveillance capitalism and a thistle. According to the Penguin Dictionary of Symbols, thistles "like all prickly plants are a symbol of the protective belt defending the heart against external harm and attacks". This piece is framed in an ornately carved black wooden frame measuring 25.5h x 21.5w inches. William Krug...

  • In the Land of the Free (with Phosphorous Bombs), Allegorical Original Painting
    Located in Chicago, IL
    This painting originated with a photo of Phosphorous bombs in the 2010 issue of World Press Photo. Phosphorous bombs are known to burn flesh to the bone, are outlawed by the Geneva Convention, and were being used on an oppressed people. With the exploding bombs are "dollar pyramids," together they reveal violence and greed on a pastel horizon. Front left is a herm derived from Mantegna lamenting the loss of virtue. In the foreground is a family group. I painted the child holding an assault rifle after reading about the number of children that die of gunshot wounds. The woman gazes up at a comic book-like hero. In his book on the Greek Heroes Stephen Fry said that the "heroes cleansed our world of...earth-born monsters that endangered mankind and threatened to choke the rise of civilization." While painting this I thought about disproving Susan Sontag's statement that Camp is never political. This piece is framed in a heavily carved wooded frame measuring 25.5h x 21.5w inches.
