Watercolor “Corporeality”, 2020 by Anna Dart

The painting "Corporeality" by the contemporary female artist Anna Dart depicts a young nude woman who is in a relaxed state.

 

She is shown lying in bed and her body is in a lazy and slow-moving position, with her eyes closed and fingers spread across her forehead and hair. The use of black watercolor creates a unique and intriguing effect, as the dark blue shadows give a burn-out photo look to the piece. The limited strokes add to the simplicity of the composition, yet the painting still speaks volumes about the subject.


The title "Corporeality" refers to the physical and material aspect of the human body. It is a term used in philosophy, psychology and anthropology to describe the embodied nature of human existence. In the context of the painting, the woman is captured in a state of exploration which symbolizes the essence of being alive. The painting invites questions about the woman's dreams and who might be in the room with her, encouraging the viewer to fill in the narrative with their own imagination. It may also spark discussions about the representation of the female form in art and the societal attitudes towards sexuality.
