Camilla d'Errico made "pollen" sometime in the 20th century, and it's got this dreamy, illustrative vibe that really draws you in. There's a gentleness to it, a soft touch that's almost like a whisper. I can't help but think of the way she builds up these layers of color to give the picture depth and a certain glow. The pinks and peaches create a dreamy, melancholic atmosphere. The textures she coaxes out of the paint are pretty captivating. Everything feels deliberate, like the butterfly emerging from the subjects' chest; a symbol of transformation and vulnerability. D'Errico's piece reminds me a little of Mark Ryden, who has a similar sensibility and the way he builds up layers of meaning in his paintings. Ultimately, this piece invites us to find our own narratives within its layers, embracing ambiguity and celebrating the ongoing conversation that is art.
