Voluptuous Lips by Sara Pope

Sara Pope is well-known for her seductive paintings of voluptuous lips. She works with real models and asks them to express different emotions. She captures those emotions photographically and then uses the shots to paint her artworks. Sara uses different tricks, techniques, and lightings to create the perfect glossy seductive lips.

Sara’s artworks have been shown across London as well as internationally and she is the first female artists in over 70(!) years to have a piece of artwork in the Vatican Collection.

 

Provoking Neon Installations by Eve de Haan

Eve de Haan is best known for her provoking neon installations. She describes her artworks as progressive and positive. Eve believes lights add shade to the meaning of the words and elevate the artwork to another level to become more powerful and able to tell a complete story.

Eve de Haan’s neon artworks can be either proactive, challenging or comforting. She is currently influenced by technology and how it’s changing culture (especially youth culture), and the influence of digital environment on the cultural and individual behaviour.

She had numerous group and solo exhibitions in London and internationally since 2016.

The artworks of the two artists are perfect complement of each other. Sara’s glossy lips gain completely new meanings with Eve’s neon installations. The neon words give a voice to the glossy lips: the lips now can speak, communicate, ask questions, and tell stories in an even more creative way.
