"Liggande modell"
Signed Karin Broos. Panel 29 x 23.5 cm.
The overall impression is good.
The models in Karin Broos's paintings are usually drawn from her immediate family, such as her daughters and grandchildren. The seemingly everyday situations are often ambiguous and charged with undertones of contemplation.
Broos uses her own photographs as inspiration and support for memory in a laborious artistic process. It is a world of women that Broos depicts, women, children, and dogs in a frozen moment. Their faces are often turned away, their task is not to meet the viewer's gaze, and their bodies are not portrayed to please the art audience. Broos's models are allowed to be themselves. Lost in their own thoughts, they convey a relaxed and self-assured impression. Surely, the artist's close relationship with her models plays a significant role in this.
