Opening on January 26, 2012, this group art show on the subject of "Diversity" will be on exhibition for one month at Madison Avenue + 50th Street in NYC. One of the artists, womb twin survivor Monica Hudson, will show a body of work entitled, "Lost Twin Souls" made up of 60 9"x9" abstract oil paintings.
"These 'portraits' of lost twin souls channeled through me onto each canvas. I became a conduit through which the unique energy of lost twins who never made it to our world flowed, rebirthing themselves into abstract/ethereal forms - via oil paint, mineral 'spirits' and glitter - which could be recognized and revered, rather than ignored and unseen. Each portrait has its own personality which informed my choices of color, shape, layering, manipulation and completion. Since many lost womb twins go undetected, these paintings almost serve as family portraits belonging to any of us. The simultaneous use of oil paint and paint remover imparts into the work the duality of existing and not existing, much like the life of a wombtwin survivor. The visual articulation of this process was in itself deeply satisfying to me, not to mention the communion of twinship experienced by having these souls around."
Could one of these portraits be your twin?
