betye saar = pure genius/new obsession




i found this work in an old catalogue from an exhibition. it amazed me from the second i saw it and i just can't stop thinking about it. the texture and richness of color is so beautiful. the fact that we don't know who these women are, but at the same time can feel this incredible connection to them and a feel of their story is beyond art. to me, it's a story, it's a memory, it's a song. a copy of it is currently pinned up at my desk. i want to make something this inspiring!
