Last Chance: ‘Julie Curtiss: Maid in Feathers’ is on view at White Cube Seoul until 10 January 2026. ⁠ ⁠ Rife with symbolic subject matter, ‘Maid in Feathers’ is a personal meditation on early motherhood and psychological transformation.⁠ ⁠ The pelican, a bird rich with symbolic value, occupies a central place in many of Curtiss’ new paintings. In Christian iconography, the bird is linked to motherhood, self-sacrifice and resurrection, while in alchemical texts hailing from the medieval period, the pelican functions as a symbol of transformation and spiritual nourishment.⁠ ⁠ 🔗 Click the link in our bio to learn more.⁠ ⁠ Images: Julie Curtiss, 'Maid in Feathers', White Cube Seoul. 5 November 2025 – 10 January 2026. © the artist.
