Stella Kapezanou
The Edit Gallery is pleased to present Pretty Little Crimes, marking the third solo exhibition of Stella Kapezanou at the gallery. A series of paintings and sculptures, small in scale yet vast in impact, where Kapezanou utters what would otherwise remain unspoken: the courage it takes to still be, fight, exist. To still be a woman.
The feminine creatures of the artist’s new series resist gravity, moonbathe under the stars, float in water, race through blood, lick their wounds. Femmes whose nails turn into weapons, witches dreaming with their eyes wide open, girls performing an eroticism untamed. They keep their heads up, they leave an indelible trace in cherry red, and that trace forms rivers, even when you only see its drops. Their stain lasts forever — their mark will always haunt you.
