Crystel Ceresa composes dreamlike, often flowerful image worlds filled with eclectic hints at past epochs and styles. Her characteristic gold or silver coated backgrounds appear as secularized interpretations of traditional icon painting, over coated by motives of baroque overabundance or delicately flowing, ornamental flower motives. Consciously made to appear as depthless and chintzy at first glance, Ceresas work transforms itself into an aesthetic pleasure through its historical references and a sublime airiness.
