“She’s So Pretty” – 8” x 8” Mixed Media on Canvas

By Hannah Parisi

This 8” x 8” canvas captures beauty, femininity, elegance—and most of all, rebellion. Crafted using makeup, nail polish, washi tape, and other everyday materials, She’s So Pretty challenges traditional notions of modern femininity through both medium and message.

Thin lines and rigid angles slice across a surface, alive with striking color and subtle chaos. Beneath the shimmering layers, darker, more neutral tones swirl upward—threatening to break free from the structures imposed upon them. It’s a visual dialogue between polish and pressure, perfection and constraint.

Hannah Parisi’s work radiates commentary, not just on beauty standards, but on the constant push and pull between expression and expectation. This piece doesn’t ask to be understood—it dares you to confront it.
