LITTLE SKY

Little Sky is a collection of small drawings and paintings of the sun and the sky reflected in water. One of the artist’s most vivid dreams as a child was of two suns setting on a lake where she used to go on vacation in Rio de Janeiro. In the dream, there was no land— just sun, water, and light. Massadas has been painting versions of this moment again and again for a few years now, using the same natural elements as symbols for expressing experiences, emotions, and illusions. In “Little Sky”, Massadas gives the viewer just a little bit of Montana’s big sky: the horizon line is high on each surface and the sky is mostly captured as a portrait of the sun in the water.
