MILENNA
C. SARAIVA (MIMI),
presented
her art opening at Santa Monica College Art Mentor Program Exhibition
titled "Still Life With Bunnies." Brazilian born,
Milenna experimented with dance and drawing before settling
on oil painting as her best means of self-expression. Some of
her paintings depict the struggle between the faceless crowd
with its collective power in opposition to the individual with
his or her solo energy. Milenna uses enigmatic dream images
to inspire other work while beauty and the self-image of women
is another major theme. Her latest series is comprised of nine
interconnected self-portraits, revealing multiple selves through
an exploration of the different expressions she presents to
the world.
