About The Artwork

Four blue women sit on a picnic blanket, raising their wine glasses in a relaxed toast. Rendered in the artist’s signature blue palette, they serve as her proxies, figures who inhabit her imagined paradisiacal landscapes. Surrounded by a serene, sunlit setting, the scene reflects themes of paradise, escape, and what it means to live in a place others view as an idyllic retreat. The blue figures highlight the tension between fantasy and lived experience, grounding the celebration in a deeper sense of belonging and contemplation.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Alanis Forde

Alanis Forde uses a figurative–surrealist vocabulary to explore escapism within landscapes idealized as paradise. Her imagined terrains, inhabited by blue, dotted proxy figures, probe belonging, longing, and displacement. Working in oil and collage, she employs saturated color, textured surfaces, and gestural mark-making to create atmospheres that oscillate between the idyllic and the uneasy. Her practice forms an ongoing inquiry into escape, identity, and home.
