Flawless Sin, review by Andreea Bruma, 1st year ITA


                    
Beauty in the lines of a woman’s body can become, when filtered through art, so sublime to give the spectator an almost mystical shiver, a feeling of unearthly adoration.
Monica Dan’s exhibition is looking to engage directly with the public, by asking a simple yet intriguing question: What did the initial sin taste like before it was born?

In her works of art, the artist presented the purity as it was waiting to be ruined. Intact and barely resisting the inevitable sin. By definition, purity represents innocence and freedom from immorality, especially of a  sexual nature.

Purity is the soul's original and eternal form and nature of being clean and free of vices or negativity. Among the soul's seven original qualities, it ranks first being known as "the mother of peace and happiness."

Filtered by the artist’s own perception of purity, the concept is portrayed by her through a number of features that she considers to be relevant: the use of the color white, feathers, and drawings of women.
The exhibition is a graceful dance between light and shadows, the immaculate purity standing at the edge of innocence lost.
