Eugenia Loli\u2019s portrait\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Vintage world is Delightfull\u2019s home, so, we couldn\u2019t pass up the retro work of Eugenia Loli. The California-based artist digitally manipulates vintage photos, creating collages with odd and interrogative ambiances. Loli has already a large fan base on\u00a0\u00a0tumblr<\/a>. However, her work doesn\u2019t restrict itself to the Internet: she deepens her work by creating tangible prints and pieces.<\/p>\n

Loli\u2019s work is undeniably inspired by surrealism and modern collagists, presenting a sense of mistery, interrogation and intrigue. Simultaneously, it\u2019s oddly pleasant. The retro aesthetic is the Loli\u2019s favourite one: to her, even amateur photos can have real value if the source is truly inspiring.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s intuitive to deep in \u201cPrivate Auction\u201d. \u00a0It really seems to be a 60\u2019s old movie. We have two gentlemen looking at some artwork on the wall, with an auctioneer refereeing them. The auctioneer is holding a telephone on his hands, potentially having more clients on it. The older man on the back has a larger shadow, revealing the possibility of a darker character.<\/p>\n

Loli\u2019s goal is to get into the mind of her audience. \u201cI like to make them think a tiny bit about what the work is about, realize one thing for one moment, and then suddenly get hit with another meaning,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

Invariably, messages may lie in the various graphics she composes. \u201cUndeniable Proof<\/a>,\u201d for example, may awake numerous interpretations according to each culture\u2019s view : it may seem to be a\u00a0celebration of a woman\u2019s menstruation to an American viewer or a symbol of women\u2019s purity to members of Loli\u2019s culture.<\/p>\n
