D'Ambrosio's Vibrant Beachside-Bathhouse Artistic Synthesis

Published on 7.28.25

  The artist D'Ambrosio draws inspiration from the contrasting environments of Coney Island's beachside carnival and Berlin's bathhouses to create works that embody a sense of freedom and community. Her paintings, such as those in "Noah's Wonderwheel" and "To Pitch a Tent", feature vibrant colors and abstracted forms reminiscent of Paul Cézanne and Marsden Hartley, evoking the eroticism of Ernst Ludwig Kirchner's style. The works are characterized by curved gestures and a jeweled blue palette, echoing the curves of the human body and natural elements like waves and trees. D'Ambrosio's art reflects the idea that ideal conditions for sensory liberation can be found in spaces where individuals feel safe to express themselves freely, as seen in Berlin's bathhouses where nudity is accepted and collective respect for rules creates a sense of community.
