Acrylic on canvas
This is a portrait of Kathy Bates’s character in the film Fried Green Tomatoes (1991), in a scene where she has fashioned herself a dress out of kitchen plastic film and is now waiting to greet her husband when he returns from work. Whereas this scene struck me as funny and perhaps a bit ridiculous when I watched the film as a child with my mother for the first time, even back then and all the more strongly now, I am stuck with something else. This person, who is lonely and frustrated by her social role as a housewife, is mustering up her
coquettishness and creativity in order to try to reignite passion in her marriage and in her life. I am stuck with her almost heroic process of self-affirmation and the unforgettable tenderness of the movie.
