The paintings are an invitation to explore the most intimate and daring writings of James Joyce and his wife Nora. When James Joyce had gone to Trieste, leaving Nora in Ireland, they maintained an erotic and sensual correspondence which reveals the deepest desires of their souls. However, Nora's responses to James Joyce were sadly never published, leaving a void in our understanding of their intimate relationship.
It is in this context that these paintings were born, following a proposal from ART PRESS. They are Nora's imagined response to James Joyce, bringing to life what her responses to his writings might be. Each painting is an invitation to discover Nora's most intimate emotions and thoughts, through colors, shapes and textures. These paintings are bold, lively and provocative, reflecting the passionate and rebellious nature of Nora and her relationship with James Joyce.
These paintings are also a celebration of love and sexuality, showing how two beings can connect and express themselves through art. They are an invitation to explore our own sexuality and deepest desires, without shame or guilt. These paintings are an ode to individuality, freedom and passion, encouraging us to free ourselves from our inhibitions and express ourselves without restriction.
Let yourself be transported by these audacious and provocative paintings, and discover the passionate love story between James Joyce and Nora. Be inspired by the strength of their correspondence and the way they spoke without fear or compromise. These paintings‡ are an invitation to explore our own sexuality and celebrate love and freedom.
THE LETTERS FROM NORA TO JAMES JOYCE
If the obscene and magnificent letters that James JOYCE wrote to his wife Nora during his trip to Trieste, are known and published; Nora's, in response to the latter, remain unknown.
"The fact that you can choose to be by my side fills me with pride and deep joy." - September 16, 1904
"My mind rejects all of today's social order and Christianity - the family home, recognized virtues, social classes and religious doctrines." - August 29, 1904
"Some pages are ugly, obscene and bestial, some are pure and sacred and spiritual: I am all that." - September 7, 1909
"My sweet little whore from Nora, I did what you told me to do, dirty little girl, and I wanked myself twice by reading your letter." - December 8, 1909
"I hope and still hope that you too will write me letters even crazier and dirtier than the ones I send you." - December 13, 1909
So, let ourselves be carried away by our imagination tinged with eroticism and prohibitions.
Perhaps Nora, in response to James 'letters, had the desire to send him not writings, but photographs taken by a close friend, heavily charged with sexuality in order to maintain James' desire and encourage him to write back these letters that we have the pleasure of knowing.
