Laura Krifka’s Wickedly Deviant Game of Patience

KrifkaRiot Material October 17, 2019. Laura Krifka enjoys doing things she is not supposed to do. Having absorbed the tenets of neoclassical paintng, she bypasses high-minded seriousness by adding a sugar-coated veneer of hyper-artificiality adopted from 1950s MGM musicals to the domestic decor of private scenes which she undercuts with a deviant sexual subtext recalling David Lynch’s Twin Peaks. This irresistible mix of dexterity, decor, decorum and deviance makes viewing her work a guilty pleasure – rather like sneaking into a peepshow or secretly spying on neighbor’s forbidden acts.We can view the conventions of art, cinema and domesic life through a bemused female gaze with no-holds-barred on taking delight in human foibles.
