About the artwork
This oil is from the DeMooning series created between 2014 and 2015. In it, Jeanette Hayes brings abstract expressionist master Willem de Kooning into dialogue with the pop culture represented by the Sailor Moon manga series. In a deceptively careless way, the Japanese fictional heroine is affixed to the forms of the twentieth-century movement. Sailor Moon's victorious stance lends the work a driving dynamism. Chromatic saturation and visual accumulation question the frenetic experience to which the digital age subjects us.
