In her debut at K Contemporary, Anne von Freyburg, a UK-based artist, celebrates textiles and ornamental pleasures in a painterly way. Within the tradition of Rococo painting, she rethinks fiber and the decorative by creating opulent, irregularly shaped wall hangings that disguise Fragonard- and Boucher-like figures in an orgy of vinyl, acrylic ink, spray paint, hand-embroidery, and self-dyed fringe.  She harnesses the period’s excesses, while toying with the sexual politics of the gaze, the feminine, and the pretty. The idea of the Rococo portrait translated into contemporary fashion fabrics references cultures -- past and present -- obsessed by image, the body, and appearance. The work is a nod to the idea of constructed beauty in technique and ideology.
