JO Y POSSO - FRIDA KHALO

Intense portrait of Frida Kahlo contrasted by a powerful black-and-white with a brilliant yellow background speckled with small, naive, joyful flowers
Her phrase strikes like a manifesto: drawing from adversity to create
What she did all her life
A living, punchy work, where pain becomes color, and resilience, almost festive

It's one of my creations

My bio:
Jo y Posso
Artist

The French artist Jo y Posso lives in Pigalle, just steps from the Moulin Rouge

For 20 years, she worked in fashion as a stylist, and spends the rest of her time creating collages and luminaires. She cuts apart art books to create encounters between great classical figures and icons of pop art, telling sensual, funny, and feminist stories. More recently, Jo y Posso has turned to mixed media to incorporate street-art influences into her work.

In her studio in Pigalle, Jo y Posso paints the woman in all her states; between strength and vulnerability, humor and sensuality.
These icons borrowed from both classical art and pop culture present a plural image but always liberated from the feminine. At the heart of this work, decidedly pop and street, writing also plays a predominant role; excerpts from literary texts, poems, or songs occupy her paintings like landscapes. And it is in these words that one must come to find all the meaning
