conjunct: Ingrid Baars

[images via Ingrid Baars]
I find some of Ingrid Baars' work rather disturbing at times, despite this, there is a sensuality about them, with soft light and nudity. Her montages are pure brilliance, she uses blunt, conjunct shapes, with mixtures of monochrome and bold colours, almost flashing across the surface of the image. Very 'Dadaesque,' even an element of Francis Bacon flickers to mind at times.
