Vickie Pierre Casts a Feminine Deity Spell in Boca Raton

Fairy tales are an ample source of visual ideas, and their use in art has grown over the years. While art from previous epochs relied on iconography borrowed from classical and religious sources, contemporary art uses modern and popular themes and forms to express the realities of our times. The first solo museum exhibition of Vickie Pierre at the Boca Raton Museum of Art, Florida, is described as a fractured fairy tale, that instead of giving a traditional happy ending, immerses the viewers deeper into the world it explores, consisting of memory, tradition, contemporary objects, and disturbing events. However, the stories the artist explores and her specific style, leave a space for hope and light. Pierre states this clearly. More in link.
