On January 31st, The Untitled Magazine’s founder, artist Indira Cesarine, opened her latest solo exhibition, “LUMIÈRE,” presented by MakersPlace at The Canvas 3.0 in partnership with The Untitled Space gallery at the Oculus in the World Trade Center. Guests from the art, fashion, and NFT worlds came together to celebrate her genesis NFT drop for the renowned digital art platform featuring 20 animated photographic light paintings on WHIM fine art screens throughout the gallery along with a selection of aluminum prints, large-scale framed photographs, video art films, and welded steel sculptures.

“LUMIÈRE” encapsulates Cesarine’s contemporary female gaze on Surrealism, a theme the artist has been exploring through a variety of mediums over the past several decades. For her latest series of works, Cesarine juxtaposes the surreal techniques of light painting with graceful and empowering portraits of female dancers to evoke an ethereal universe of divine energy. Through digital animation, Cesarine’s light paintings come to life, harmonizing with her chiaroscuro portraits that accentuate the power of the human spirit through the movements of dance.”

Curated by MakersPlace Senior Director Jessica Marinaro, the exhibit also previewed Cesarine’s “Lumière” wearable art fashion collection for The Untitled Boutique with a performance by WHITE WAVE Young Soon Kim Dance Company in the photo-printed garments culminating the evening of engaging art and performance. Guests enjoyed drinks courtesy of Sant’Arturo along with complimentary copies of The Untitled Magazine’s “REBEL” Issue.

“The “LUMIÈRE” collection is a culmination of my exploration of the contemporary female gaze on Surrealism. “Lumière” is not just an exploration of visual aesthetics but an introspective journey into the symbolic significance of light. It delves into the implications of illumination as a metaphor for enlightenment, hope, and the constant pursuit of understanding. In “LUMIÈRE,” I beckon you to immerse yourself in a world where light, movement, and symbolism converge, inviting you to perceive the profound mystery and beauty inherent in the dance of life.” – Indira Cesarine
