In Written...Naudline Pierre is known for her expressive adaptations of Renaissance compositions and visual conceits, such as the altar triptych and her incorporation of flattened space with forced perspective. In Written in the Sky, 2022, Pierre reimagines the high altarpiece by adorning it with personal iconography. Pierre places her protagonist at the center of the triptych in a powerful stance with arms and legs outstretched, taking up as much space as possible. Glowing from within, she stands on the heads of two winged cherubim who send her flying towards the viewer with a black snake held aloft. The altarpiece unfolds in gradients of red, a formidable color within Pierre’s universe. This swirling gradient of vibrant hues signifies change and transformation, and for each of the beings that populate this undulating scene, it is an altar to power, endurance, and self-actualization.Exhibitions
