Here is the latest interview from Charmaine Olivia, whose solo show Muses, was unveiled last Saturday during Shooting Gallery and White Walls grand opening in their new building on 886 Geary Street. Olivia’s new work embraces a wildly radiant palette in ethereal compositions of windswept maidens. Each title evokes a mythos from various cultures such as a nordic Freja and the Greek Halcyon. In Jennifer Lewis’ interview in Sex & Design, the artist relates that her figures are a hybrid of individuals who inspire her as well as self-portraits. Charmaine discusses how she first discovered painting, that women posing with skulls are not necessarily dark, and why many artists like to procrastinate before shows.
