Citrine 

Cassidy Rae Marietta created this digital artwork, Citrine, in the 20th century. Its swirling patterns and warm tones immediately bring to mind the psychedelic art of the 1960s and 70s, a period marked by social upheaval, the rise of the feminist movement, and an exploration of inner consciousness. The image presents a nude woman, adorned with flowing hair and surrounded by floral motifs, holding a skull against her womb. This can be interpreted as a powerful statement about life, death, and the cyclical nature of existence. Her nudity challenges traditional representations of the female form, presenting a figure who is both vulnerable and powerful. The vibrant color palette and swirling designs create a visually arresting experience, drawing the viewer into a world of dreams and introspection. Citrine invites us to contemplate our own mortality while embracing the beauty and fragility of life.
