Chris Levine

This portrait series was born out of a collaboration between artist, Chris Levine, and British supermodel, Kate Moss. This piece depicts Moss standing before a white backdrop with her eyes closed and donning a bold red lip. Similarly to his depiction of Queen Elizabeth II, Moss is illustrated here as an effect of light. Caught in a moment of tranquility, Moss appears at ease. Within this work, Levine attempts to break away from traditional celebrity portraiture that the fashion icon is often encased in, instead establishing a space in which we can appreciate this portrait as a meditative experience.
