Asian Youth vs Fast Food

Encore un furieux des ténèbres et lumières. Dans une veine un peu différente de Joseph Clement Coll. Ici on est dans un univers un peu moins «tourmenté», plus «rigoureux», la précision prenant le dessus sur le côté «jeté» et fougueux. D’ailleurs la très grande majorité des illustrations de Franklin Booth sont cadrées alors que Joseph Clement Coll joue souvent avec le blanc de la page, laissant s’évader ses personnages. Franklin Booth est aussi un «ancien» (1874 – 1948), les textures créées par ses hachures sont d’une justesse, d’une profondeur et d’une richesse sans faille. Du travail d’orfèvre !

Stylized long necked human figures are hybridized and become one with the exotic natural forces that surround them. The human figure becomes one with a tree, or the ground, as the hair transforms into vegetation or flowing streams, and roots sprout from the ankles to become parts of trees or entangled in the decaying undergrowth of a forest floor. Parts of bodies sprout leaves and flowers grow instead of hair. The lines between human and nature are blurred. The result is alchemy and the medium is paint. |

Karras works in the tradition similar to that used by the early Sienese and Flemish Renaissance Masters. The luminous quality of her paintings comes from layer upon layer of glazes used, resulting in a dreamlike surreal atmosphere. |
