In this episode, I hang out with Flamgu. Flamgu is a versatile, visionary artist and painter who revels in "frolicking." Flamgu's art draws power from the dualities of reality, blending light and dark, feminine and masculine, in a mesmerizing dance.
At the heart of Flamgu's process lies the anatomical heart, serving as an anchor point as her paintings flow and evolve, with ventricles transforming into sweeping landscapes. This organic approach imbues her work with a sense of movement and vitality.
Flamgu's artistic journey is enriched by live painting, where constraints compel her to analyze her work differently from her studio practice. The pressure helps refine her vision, as she shares how she made her dreams reality, transitioning from Bonnaroo attendee to esteemed artist. Influenced by masters like Caravaggio and Van Gogh, Flamgu's style is uniquely captivating. Enjoy!
