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.⁠
