Taken at Espacio Gallery, London, 2020 for Persona non grata - The Ascending Goddess
Adeline’s practice draws inspiration from her upbringing in a small Carpathian town and feminist theosophy.
Her art emerges from the profound transformation she underwent, shedding the shackles of a religious and patriarchal upbringing that silenced her voice, suppressed her sexuality, and confined her dreams. Embracing the divine feminine within, she has reclaimed her power, sensuality, and unapologetic love for life.
Adeline’s paintings embody the dark goddess archetype, the witch, the outcast who defies societal norms and patriarchal oppression. She paints the wild, untamed woman, the "creatrix" who bleeds, endures, and never surrenders. She is the wolf leader, guiding us towards a harmonious fusion of the divine feminine and masculine energies.
Her work celebrates the journey from shame to empowerment, objectification to self-ownership. It is a tribute to the resilience of the human spirit, a testament to the transformative power of art, and a call for a world where women are revered, not reviled.
Therefore, Adeline’s art is not just a visual expression but a conduit for exploring the profound trauma she has soaked like a sponge and processed to provoke thought and engage the viewer in a critical dialogue of religion, spirituality, political activism and freedom deemed of respect and compatibility with the present society.
