Kiki Lamers (1964)
Portrait of Girl
1998 | oil paint on canvas | 50 × 45 cm
Kiki Lamers is interested in emotions, not stereotypes. So is that what makes her work so unsettling?
Lamers is known for her unconventional portraits of pouting, inquisitive, playful, cross and introverted toddlers. Painted with soft, wispy lines, the little girl in this painting almost seems to gaze at us from another world. She confronts us with a look of complete self-awareness.
