Feel the love when Cupid's arrow hits right between the eyes with the lovely new listings from the queen of amore herself, photographer Jamie Nelson. Her mesmerising Love Series takes centre stage, capturing the essence of love in all its shapes and manifestations.
Jamie, known for her exceptional storytelling abilities, delves deeply into the universal issue of love. The Love Series is defined by colour symbolism, with feminine reds and pinks playing an important part. In-your-face iconography is used to communicate clearly about the issue, highlighting Jamie's less-than-subtle, over-the-top attitude, which never fails to enthral.
The artist, recognised for her unique tongue-in-cheek approach, uses dramatic makeup and exaggerated styling to explore romantic, platonic, and self-love themes. Jamie's face becomes a canvas for graphic heart stickers and playful kiss marks. In a moving examination of love during COVID, she depicts two ladies kissing while wearing elegant protection masks. The series also examines the darker side of love, with a hand holding a broken heart-shaped mirror as a representation of heartbreak.
Jamie uses lighting, composition, and colour to invite viewers to reflect on their relationship with love, celebrating its depth and importance, as well as the empowerment of the feminine gaze. Whether love is lost, found, or blind, it is a universal theme that speaks to all.
