artists that morphs the hman figure, "Mojgan Najafi"

          Looking into this woman's work i am intrigued with this dis-figuration of removing the arms in certain pieces, such as Alexandros of Antioch with his work "Venus de Milo," 100 BC. Najafi's work is very involved from this over the hundreds of years art that took place between theses artist's. her work is very graphic and visually stunning. a form of using a loose brushstroke with watercolor works.
          The viewer depicts the figure because of a close relationship to the human figure but done in her artistic fashion. this painting intrigued me because of the woman's archetype of laying as if Venus has in many paintings before her.
