Ladì - Maternity

The iconography of motherhood is closely linked to the subject of the Madonna and Child. It is probably one of the most popular iconographies in the history of both Western and Eastern art. The Madonna and Child appears since the dawn of medieval painting and remained a constant subject as long as religious themes dominated artistic production (that is, until the 19th century, when themes inspired by everyday life began to be introduced). It is quite common for contemporary artists to treat the iconography of motherhood without directly linking it to the Christian religion.

Ladì's style is characterized by a clear pursuit of primary and absolute values. This leads the painter to reduce the image almost to its bare essentials, giving it a powerfully iconic configuration with high symbolic and spiritual value. In this regard, it's clear that Ladì undoubtedly looked to Paul Gauguin for inspiration in defining her artistic path, which, however, reveals a distinct personality. Formally, Ladì's works are distinguished by the bold, black lines that delineate elongated, sinuous forms on a two-dimensional surface. Chromatically, Ladì maintains a certain coherence with the primitivist nature of her art through the use of earthy tones.

Ladì is an artist whose work is consistently linked to the Symbolist and Expressionist movements of the historical avant-garde. Her works possess a distinct primitivist character, giving them a profound spiritual significance.
