Elizabeth Fox: Candy Colored Cravings

The paintings of Elizabeth Fox are a paradox. At first glance they seem frisky and fun, brimming with glamour girls who evoke the pastel sensuality of a Botticelli goddess. Floating and unanchored in their surreal dreamscapes, however, these figures appear lost in their sexualized stoicism. Fox’s heroines long for something just beyond their flattened foregrounds — connection, understanding, purpose.
