Nieves González ( @nievesgonnzalez ) paints figures that could belong to the 18th century… if it weren’t for the oversized puffer jackets, the sterile gloves, or the subtle irony in their gaze.
Her work collapses eras, displaces expectations, and rewrites the visual codes of power and femininity. It’s not fashion. It’s not satire. It’s a quiet rupture.
Moon Above sees in Nieves a bold symbolic language — one that speaks to memory, to status, and to the absurdity of identity constructions.We believe art should disturb gently.And she does it with velvet gloves. Sometimes literally.
