Rendered in varying combinations of oil pastels, watercolors, and occasionally embroidery thread, this artwork by Cluca Kunst (known in the art world simply as “Cluca”) feels summery and nostalgic and always interesting. The Montreal based artist is something of a closed book. Though I found plenty of references to her art on Pinterest (and many pictures of her cat), I wasn’t able to really discover anything about the artist. That’s okay. Today, we will just have to look and wonder.
You can follow Cluca on her website and on Facebook and Instagram.

Wow / such a unique style – and seems to have a certain time period in mind (old swim suits – irons – old sew machines) – thanks for sharing

These are fab. The embroidered sewing machine is so clever. The flesh tones of the female figures and the rear views of the swimsuit clad women reminded me strongly of Jenny Saville’s nudes.
