Talia Levitt's exhibition, '24/7', explores her journey through early motherhood and how it has changed her art. This body of work merges domestic objects, like baby items, with classical art techniques, creating a fresh dialogue between everyday life and fine art.
Levitt's artistic process incorporates materials that reflect her life as both an artist and a mother. By using techniques that blend representational painting with symbolism, her work invites viewers to consider the meanings behind the objects. Her focus on personal experience allows her to address universal themes of care and attention.
The exhibition challenges traditional ideas in art, especially the perception of what is valued. By reflecting on her experiences, Levitt also engages with historical art forms, such as Dutch still life, making them relevant to contemporary discussions. '24/7' not only showcases her artistic evolution but also provokes thought on how our personal lives shape artistic expression.
