DAY OF THE DEAD - SYLVIA JI GEBUNDEN

American artist Sylvia Ji's haunting  seductive and psychedelically tinged portrayals of women
offer a whole new slant on femininity  and blur the line between high- and lowbrow art. Her
subjects are symbolic reflections of herself  and people she knows  or just nameless faces set
in a landscape of fleeting and decaying beauty. The dominant influence in Sylvia's work is La
Calavera Catrina  the iconic skeleton dame of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebrations  and her
macabre  yet glamorous  take on the Sugar Skull tradition. This intermingles with gorgeously
colourful images of exotic empresses  Native American tribes women  and Baroque beauties. This
retrospective monograph offers a lavish overview of an artist who draws inspiration from life
and death to create highly charged and darkly exotic work.
