Lauren West.
Elegant, imaginative, otherworldly, and metaphorically powerful paintings from Mississippi-based artist Lauren West.
"My paintings," Lauren explains, "deal with the wild combination of animals, beasts that barely exist, a few humans, and what in the hell we’re all even doing here. I love creating worlds with characters that don’t mind leaning into the cheesy wonderment of what it all means. I’ve got a lot of questions on living and my work is simply the product of working through those questions. It’s all comically bittersweet but boy - oh boy - I hope it’s hopeful."

art honoring Hermes
here's the third set in the series i'm doing on art honoring the gods as i finish my art history degree; Apollon and Artemis can be found under these links. here are my favorite pieces honoring Hermes :>
Disclaimer: Most artists throughout the neoclassical period (in particular, but not limited to) used Hermes/Mercury interchangeably for a myriad of cultural and religious reasons. I do understand that Hermes and Mercury are syncretized deities with very different aspects in Greek and Roman society respectively.
In order: 1) Souls on the Banks of the Acheron by Adolph Hiremy-Hirschl, 1898, Belvedere Palace, Vienna. 2) Detail from Palazzo Clerici Ceiling Fresco by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, 1740, Milan. 3) Hermes (Engraving) by William Blake Richmond, 1866, University of Toronto Library. 4) Mercury Attaching his Wings by Jean-Baptiste Pigalle, c. 1744, on display in the Louvre, Paris. 5) Hermes by Jules Alexis Coulan, 1914, Grand Central Station. 6) Elevation of the Great Elector to Olympus by Charles-Amedee-Philippe van Loo, 1751, City Palace, Potsdam, Germany. 7) Detail from Mercury Exhorting Aeneas to Leave Carthage by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, 1757, Palazzina di Caccia, Stupinigi. 8) Mercury and Psyche by Reinhold, 1857, Staatliche Museum, Berlin.
