A look into aesthetic education by Andy Warhol

“A Look Into Aesthetic Education by Andy Warhol”
Tempera on paper
2022

This painting is about the moment when pop culture stops being entertainment and becomes a psychological environment.

I was interested in how Andy Warhol transformed everyday imagery into emotional mythology. Repetition, celebrity, beauty, surface, consumption, glamour, artificiality  all of these became emotional languages shaping the modern identity. Over time I realized that people no longer simply observe images. They emotionally live inside them.

For me, this work explores the relationship between femininity and visual culture.

How desire, beauty, attention, and identity become constructed through endless exposure to images.
