Flora Yukhnovich. Le Mercredi - on s’habille en rose, 2017 (private collection).
Oil on linen: 170 x 240 cm. Flora Yukhnovich (2020): “We live in such an image-saturated time which I think has encouraged louder and more ostentatious aesthetics that feel similar to the Rococo sensibility for excess. I also think there is something quite Rococo about our celebrity culture, and the aspirational pleasure we take in watching the glamorous lives of the super-rich on reality TV”.
