Burning of the Woman - Alexis Costello - Tao Gallery

BURNING OF THE WOMAN – ALEXIS COSTELLO. Official Function Friday 24th March 6pm

Burning of the Woman – Alexis Costello

BURNING OF THE WOMAN

ALEXIS COSTELLO

Alexis lives in Bondi, Sydney and is mum to two girls.
After studying drama in London and performing on stage and in film she travelled Italy for several months falling deeply in love with the culture, language and art. 
In her paintings, Alexis explores the complexities of being a woman and a mother, drawing influence from Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo and Turkish painter Hulya Ozdemir amongst others. 
 
Using bright, bold acrylic colours on large-scale canvases, she examines themes of postnatal depression, and the relentless demands of mothering that coincide with the intensely profound love we feel for our children.
Her exhibition, Burning of the Woman, although explicit with themes of motherhood also explores femininity in greater depth. It’s a celebration of what it is to be inside a woman’s body, exploring sensuality, romantic love, friendship and relationship with self. 
 
Alexis would be honoured to have you join her on Friday the 24th of March at the Tap Gallery, 1/259 Riley street in Surry Hills
6 – 8 pm for the reception of ‘Burning Of The Woman’
