Frieda Kahlo 'Self Portrait as Tenuhana (Diego on My Mind)'
I love the strength and resolve, in the autobiographical portraits of Frieda Kahlo. In this particular one, using the dress as a symbol, her portraits always have a beautiful way of referencing her outer culture with her inner world.
"The women of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec are known to be strong, independent and, at the time of Frida Kahlo, they captured the fantasy of many travelers and artists. By wearing the Tehuana dresses, Frida Kahlo made a statement about herself and her Mexican roots."
And finally, below are absolutely stunning portraits by Marco Mazzoni. I love the way the eyes are left white, masked, somehow making the dream-like aspect even more prominent.... the way we are connected to nature...& what floats in our heads unseen....
