In Chrysalis, artist Laura Berger encapsulates the raw emotional energy of transformation in a soft, subdued color palette of blues and pinks. The solo show on view now at Stephanie Chefas Projects features a collection of oil paintings that center on entwined figures, their bodies protected by each other and their limbs sometimes positioned as shields. In comparison to Berger’s earlier paintings, this body of work diverges in opacity, with translucent appendages and torsos emerging through other figures. More

About The Artwork First time exposed at my personal exhibition "Rage" -December 2019 at Qreator, Bucharest. Social anxiety disorder is a persistent fear of one or more situations in which the person is exposed to possible scrutiny by others and fears that he or she may do something or act in a way that will be humiliating or embarrassing. It exceeds normal "shyness" as it leads to excessive social avoidance and substantial social or occupational impairment. Feared activities may include almost any type of social interaction, especially small groups, dating, parties, talking to strangers, restaurants, interviews, etc. Those who suffer from social anxiety disorder fear being judged by others in society. In particular, individuals with social anxiety are nervous in the presence of people with authority and feel uncomfortable during physical examinations. People who suffer from this disorder may behave a certain way or say something and then feel embarrassed or humiliated after. As a result, they often choose to isolate themselves from society to avoid such situations. They may also feel uncomfortable meeting people they do not know, and act distant when they are with large groups of people. In some cases, they may show evidence of this disorder by avoiding eye contact, or blushing when someone is talking to them. A previous negative social experience can be a trigger to social phobia,perhaps particularly for individuals high in "interpersonal sensitivity". For around half of those diagnosed with social anxiety disorder, a specific traumatic or humiliating social event appears to be associated with the onset or worsening of the disorder; this kind of event appears to be particularly related to specific social phobia, for example, regarding public speaking (Stemberg et al., 1995). As well as direct experiences, observing or hearing about the socially negative experiences of others (e.g. a faux pas committed by someone), or verbal warnings of social problems and dangers, may also make the development of a social anxiety disorder more likely. Social anxiety disorder may be caused by the longer-term effects of not fitting in, or being bullied, rejected or ignored (Beidel and Turner, 1998). Shy adolescents or avoidant adults have emphasised unpleasant experiences with peers or childhood bullying or harassment (Gilmartin, 1987). In one study, popularity was found to be negatively correlated with social anxiety, and children who were neglected by their peers reported higher social anxiety and fear of negative evaluation than other categories of children. Socially phobic children appear less likely to receive positive reactions from peers, and anxious or inhibited children may isolate themselves. Cultural factors that have been related to social anxiety disorder include a society's attitude towards shyness and avoidance, affecting the ability to form relationships or access employment or education, and shame. One study found that the effects of parenting are different depending on the culture: American children appear more likely to develop social anxiety disorder if their parents emphasize the importance of others' opinions and use shame as a disciplinary strategy (Leung et al., 1994), but this association was not found for Chinese/Chinese-American children. In China, research has indicated that shy-inhibited children are more accepted than their peers and more likely to be considered for leadership and considered competent, in contrast to the findings in Western countries. Purely demographic variables may also play a role. Problems in developing social skills, or 'social fluency', may be a cause of some social anxiety disorder, through either inability or lack of confidence to interact socially and gain positive reactions and acceptance from others. The studies have been mixed, however, with some studies not finding significant problems in social skills while others have. What does seem clear is that the socially anxious perceive their own social skills to be low. It may be that the increasing need for sophisticated social skills in forming relationships or careers, and an emphasis on assertiveness and competitiveness, is making social anxiety problems more common, at least among the 'middle classes'. An interpersonal or media emphasis on 'normal' or 'attractive' personal characteristics has also been argued to fuel perfectionism and feelings of inferiority or insecurity regarding negative evaluation from others. The need for social acceptance or social standing has been elaborated in other lines of research relating to social anxiety.

It may or may not be true that Christian-Pontus Andersson wavered between a career in plastic surgery or art. But it is true that this Swedish artist creates amazing small and large scale sculptures and sculptural installations out of fiberglass as well as ceramic! Beyond the exquisite detail and care he exhibits in creating his work, he uses arresting, evocative names to continue or add to the mystery of the narrative of each piece. Top to bottom: A Hairdresser; Leaving Gravity; Mother and Father (We Are waiting Till It Has Passed); Mother and Son-Farewell Eden; The Gatekeeper Rested His Eyes, an Unauthorized Person Snuck In; The Lamb's Lullaby, There were two infants seeking solice [sic] in each other It is also fascinating to see how small some of these pieces are. My guess is that some stand around 24-30". You can gauge them next to the regular sized doorways in these shots of the pieces in a gallery setting. But the piece that caught my eye is a startling installation in a common area at Uppsala University in Sweden. Seven life-sized male figures in white socks, gloves, and bubble helmets (which look like larger versions of the helmets Rudi Gernreich designed for the flight attendants in "2001: A Space Odyssey") hang suspended and rigid in the air with their arms stretched out to their sides. These gymnasts are either concentrating to stay up or willing themselves to take flight. The mind-boggling name for this installation is A Joyful Troop Of Perfection With Crying Sensitive Hearts. Christian-Pontus Andersson is represented in Sweden by Christian Larsen gallery. http://www.christianlarsen.se/artists/christian-pontus-andersson/
IF you are like me, you are looking for FUN, yet simple projects for the end of the school year!! I got this idea from this fabulous blog called The Lost Sock I found these great videos to show the students before they get started! Bubbles from baris parildar on Vimeo. First we talked about the properties of bubbles. I blew some bubbles for the kids to look at (with their hands in their laps...pure torture) but I really wanted them to use their eyes. What shape is the shiney? Where is the light source? For example a window will make a window shaped shiney! What color are the bubbles and why do they start as a clear liquid and then turn rainbowy? 1 First students traced as many different circle shaped objects I could fine!! 2 They added at least two shineys to each bubble 3 Then colored the bubbles using oil pastels, and making sure to leave at least part of the bubble black to make it look transparent So, first the students started drawing bubbles individually... Then, one student suggested that they put their papers together and connect their bubbles. Within a few minutes, I had an entire class on the floor connecting EVERY one of their papers to make a huge bubble mural! They were SO excited and I loved the conversations I heard as they ALL worked together as one giant group!! The end product was a masterpiece and the kids were SO excited!! Some classes drew bubbles together to form words. You can see the words " Pie is Good" at the top of this class' Art! The great thing about this project is that its fun for ALL ages! My four year old (below) drew her own bubble artwork (all by herself) and included herself blowing the bubbles in the bottom corner! She had fun searching for circles in the kitchen. There are Tabasco bottle circles, and salt shaker circles, coffee can lid circles, a soda can circle! So get out your oil pastels and go create some Bubble ART to kick off the SUMMER!!!! The great thing about bubbles is that they are inexpensive and fun no matter what age you are! My daughter got a bubble blower last summer that blew small bubbles inside large bubbles! We took this picture last August!

After my girls initial disappointment in oil pastels, we tried added baby oil. The results were amazing!
Despite the meticulous control and calculated perspectives, Canadian artist Adam Lupton’s oil paintings are constantly fidgeting. They mostly feature youth in various incarnations in a blur of motion represented as simultaneous frames, or with different layers of paint exposed. This jitteriness is revealed both through substance, by showing the layers of material creation, or through time, as the viewer pans multiple freeze-frames overlaid on top of each other. What stands still throughout all his work is an obsession with time and chaos, and the individual’s navigation of the two in the constant present.

John Singer Sargent, Simplon. Lesson, 1911 John Singer Sargent rose to fame for his finely rendered oil portraits. At his peak, he was one of the most sought-after artists for portrait commissions. But, he was also a remarkable watercolorist. I cover the following in the post: Watercolors brought out a different side to Sargent's work.
Erik Nieminen is a painter who was born in Ottawa, ON, Canada. He earned a B.F.A. from the University of Ottawa and an M.F.A. from Concordia University in Montreal. Erik describes his work by saying, “Reality. The term “reality” denotes what is real; in its widest sense, this includes everything that exists, whether or not it is observable or comprehensible. My paintings present an independent reality, a world that is dependent on our real world yet is separate from it. It is a world that exists on its own terms. When you’re in a place you tend to absorb much more than you can possibly remember. You notice details and seemingly inconsequential things, which are then put together in your mind. To represent the qualities that the mind absorbs requires a combination of recollection and reference. Photography is an important tool. It isn’t the photographic ‘look’ so much as it is the photographic memory that is important for my paintings. The photograph provides not just veracity but memory of a subject. This allows for a fairly detailed approach to my painting, but one that I can subjectively control in terms of how I use the information to achieve different degrees of realism or hyperrealism. I’m interested in what one could call ‘ordinary fare’. I don’t look for the exotic. The scenes that I’m interested in are usually immediately familiar as social types and modern spaces. Within these unassuming locations, subjects, and situations, I try to tap into what I perceive as the endless narratives and ironies that happen around us all the time.”
