Nadine Faraj’s blobby, wet watercolor style is unsurprisingly great at capturing how blobby and weird and fluid-filled the human body is. She came to our attention this week because she has a show opening tomorrow night at Anna Zorina Gallery. Naked Revolt is a celebration of the international phenomenon of topless feminist protesters. Hell yeah!
But it’s pretty surprising how well these watercolors translate to GIF form. Watching this flesh jiggle and change skin color is a bit like an especially arty twerk-centric music video from that early aughts trend of songs in which people rapped about all the different ethnicities of boys and/or girls they liked (does anyone else remember that being a thing?).
