Persephone

The painting series Persephone was produced as a body of work during the Covid quarantine and presented as a show in the Spring of 2021, just as the world was beginning to open back up.

“As the goddess Demeter and her daughter reunite, color starts populating the landscape and before we know it, it’s March again. Spring is approaching especially slowly this year, as it gradually appears, it feels like we greet it with comprehensible caution, but growing positivity. It is impossible to forget the long winter behind us, but here we are, reemerging and prepared for what is next.”

- Carlos Nunez
