Acrylic on canvas
I painted two versions of this painting. I wanted to portray Nina Hagen’s iconic post-punk look, the fierceness and power that her singing and her onstage attitude communicate. However, when I was finished painting her with an open mouth, screaming into the microphone, I realized that something was amiss. I felt like I had portrayed her as we all already know her: a fully charged, savage musical force. But I wasn’t feeling fully charged and roaring at the time, I was feeling contemplative and I was feeling alone. So I portrayed her again, still the same onstage character, still the same potential, but instead gazing seriously at the viewer as though analyzing or waiting for an answer. In a way, isolated by her power.
