NOELIA TOWERS
Noelia Towers is a Chicago based artist born and raised in Barcelona. Towers' paintings are made in a photo-realistic style, her images created by photographing herself and references to dominance and submissive practices. Her subjects of choice display the power of intimacy, trust, and love with references to larger philosophical quandaries. Towers brush strokes are a combination of representational and light impasto, creating a quality that refers to the stark digital nature of casual contemporary snapshots. The resulting paintings are unsettling portraits that relate to the artist’s own unique perspective. Towers has exhibited her work at de boer, Los Angeles, CA; Stems Gallery, Paris; Half Gallery, NY; Nino Mier Gallery, NY; Swivel Gallery, NY; Grove, London, UK; Woman Made Gallery and Public Works Gallery in Chicago, IL.
