Mona Mia ... Malu chooses her own very original daughter as a subject for her Bohemian series, Mia is dressed as a 70s dancing queen for Halloween. Though Mia has ethereal features and colors, soft shapes, Malu harden them slightly in this fauve meets german expressionism picture, all Malu. Fauve colors, patterns, textures, a feeling of drawing or print ... Recognising Mia's unique features, and the particular look and posture in this particular picture, Malu does a new take on the theme of the classical portrait and the Mona Lisa on different levels, on the level of theme, on the level of beauty, and brings the figure to a contemporary setting ... Bright colors also bring this image to the present, and pattens make our eyes travel through the painting ... In an outstanding composition, Malu brings humor, seduction, youth, nostalgia, and bohemianness to our common experience ...
