In her newest exhibition Rome-based American artist Wendy Artin offers us the beauty of the human body with a series of forty shimmering watercolors and ten ink line drawings. By an almost alchemical process Artin transforms water and pigment into breathtaking image. Flesh and Stone ranges in subject matter from classical antiquity to the contemporary nude, celebrating the transformative nature of art where stone becomes flesh and flesh becomes divine.

“The greatest moments are when the paintings seem to magically make themselves, when the tiny clumps of pigment suspended in water settle in just the right place to describe the curve of a thigh, of a belly, and then dry. I chanced upon beauty, finding it in a sculpture across the room from the one I planned to paint, in the unexpected return of a favorite model, in what I could coax out of a puddle of watercolor on the paper,” said Artin.
