Dutch artist, Ingrid Baars did not set out to transform the art world, her only aim was to create images that not only inspired her but hopefully others as well. The unintentional implication of her work brings into being a deeper sense of consciousness, which is the proverbial paradigm that artists one day hope to achieve. Baars appreciation of modern surrealism is a repetitiously perceived in her work attracting the attention of the viewer by creating a deep sense of humanity. Her ongoing project ‘l’Afrique!’ is a fascinating glimpse into the diversity and richness of African cultural heritage. In this series, Baars use of photographic manipulation combined with her inspiration from African sculptures and real women to create a realm of unique and other worldly beauty. Incredibly powerful, her work bravely attempts to reveal the unwaveringly, beautiful form of the African woman while addressing perceptions of sexuality, femininity and objectification.
