Oil on canvas.
26x35"
This large scale oil painting depicts a woman relaxing on an indoor bench and gazing out of a window as the sun sets, casting a warm glow of light on her skin. She appears reflective as she looks out at the world from the comfort and safety of her home. Captured in what feels like an intimate scene, viewers are invited to reflect on the beauty of a simple moment. The resting figure highlights the importance of relaxation and rest in our lives, which are so often productivity driven. Viewers can reflect on the beauty of taking a break, and taking a moment to oneself in this depiction of a moment of peaceful reflection.
Joanna Aslanian received her bachelor's degree from Cal Poly Humboldt and her Master's degree from Adler University. She current lives and works in the suburbs of Chicago, IL.
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
I am an artist, therapist, and art therapist. My work reflects this by highlighting the psychological impact of art through depictions of emotional vulnerability.
Working with acrylic and oil paint on canvas, I create imagery that exposes my own vulnerability through the revealing nature of art-making. Viewers are invited to find consolation and solidarity from the universality of these human emotions—and in doing so, unveil the meaning and beauty derived through connection with others.
