”A Series of Inspiring Women”
 Wardell Milan

Louis B. James Gallery, 143b Orchard St, NYC

The subjects of his drawings, taken from industry magazines and combined with other imagery of women  from fashion and pornography, hover between  the  heroic  and  the  grotesque.   Viscerally  and  starkly rendered in charcoal, both  large  and  small  in  format, Milan’s  figures become post-gender warriors, a tribe of contemporary Amazons who through extreme labor transmogrify their bodies and in turn push the contemporary ideal of physical perfection into uncharted realms. - thru Apr 14

Sometimes it seems the harder you try to hold on to something or someone the more it wants to get away. You feel like some kind of criminal for having felt, for having wanted. For having wanted to be wanted. It confuses you, because you think that your feelings were wrong, and it makes you feel so small because it’s so hard to keep it inside when you let it out and it doesn’t come back. You’re left so alone that you can’t explain.

Striving for better

Its in our nature that we all wanna strive for better of everything, it grants u hope, it keeps u alive. So friends, only look back in smile, laugh at the mistakes you made, talk through all the stupid things you did- only then we are ready to finally move on. Don’t diss your past, just look ahead, head up high and learn a better lesson this time. One day, your efforts will be paid off and trust that this will happen.
