2025 | Resin and Mixed Media on Cradled Wood
Bold color. Fragmented beauty. A face that refuses to be defined by convention.
Doris is a striking contemporary portrait that combines the graphic simplicity of Pop Art with the dimensional possibilities of layered resin and mixed media. Her sweeping golden-yellow hair, pale mint complexion, and muted green lips emerge against a soft lavender background, creating a playful yet enigmatic composition.
Originally developed as part of Alissa Van Atta's digital portrait series The Girls, the artwork draws inspiration from the bold visual language of silkscreen printing. Simplified shapes, unexpected color relationships, and fragmented facial features transform the traditional female portrait into an exploration of perception and identity.
The work evolved beyond its digital origins through the introduction of layered resin and mixed media. While preserving the flat, graphic character of the original design, the physical layers create subtle depth and shifting shadows. As light interacts with the surface, Doris becomes more than an image—she becomes a sculptural object that changes with the viewer's perspective.
Her features are simultaneously familiar and unconventional. Overlapping shapes and carefully interrupted facial elements challenge traditional expectations of portraiture, suggesting that identity cannot always be represented through a single, unified image. The exaggerated hairstyle and stylized expression reference vintage glamour while resisting its conventional ideals of beauty.
The restrained lavender background allows the vibrant yellow hair and delicate facial details to command attention, creating a composition that balances visual simplicity with unexpected complexity. The result is an artwork that feels simultaneously nostalgic, contemporary, playful, and quietly provocative.
Part of The Girls collection, Doris explores how femininity is constructed, represented, and perceived. Through bold graphic forms and dimensional layering, the artwork invites viewers to reconsider the familiar conventions of the female portrait.
