My favorite one is "Her". Among all those monumental and vibrant Pieces theres this sombre little one, dedicated to her mother, full of understanding and love. To me its the most beautiful one out of all of them, it shows a deep empathy for her mother and forgivness.
I myself grew up the same as Sveva, extremely isolated and cut off from the outside world by my mother (coincidentally Canadian as well). It’s so beautiful and equally as sorrowful that she was finally free and expressed her struggles and experiences through her art. Absolutely amazing and touching video Dweller, thank you.
@@flowerpower2906 You will break free… I’m sorry that life has dealt you such difficulties. I sincerely pray that you are able to experience some joy in your day to day experience, and that you are able to experience and develop your creative abilities and find some joy and satisfaction in that. In times of darkness and sorrow I remind myself that the one guarantee in this life is that things will change… I pray that that change comes soon and is positive. Be well… you are not alone 🕊 🤍 💡

Truly inspiring. It shows that a highly evolved and creative soul could pass through suffering and achieve greatness without capitulating to anger and hatred.
Her use of colour and watercolour layering is unbelievably beautiful, it feels so pure and personal, like looking into her soul. Can't help but get tears in my eyes if I think about her too hard. Wonderful story, she's a hero! Thanks so much for this beautiful documentary 🥰
I know what its like to be imprisoned by your own mother. Guilt tripped and gaslighted for years to be a lone vigilant to her madness. My mother also was a serial mistress in my younger years… she had no idea what a healthy relationship was, maybe there’s something or a correlation to it.
Sveva’s work is stunningly vibrant and loud, and I find a deep spiritual connection and deep peace within her paintings, despite the heavy subject matter. The colours and composition feel like these are what my dreams are made of. Immensely beautiful.
What a triumphant and healing journey this amazing artist lived. I was deeply moved by your presentation despite not being familiar with her works. Thank you for this heartfelt introduction!
Hi, Blind Dweller! I just wanted to say I am here since your Bryan Charnley video and you introduced me to so many new artist and for that I am very thankful. I am a hobbyist artist that for the longest time didn't now where to look for inspiration and through you I found so many sources of it. Also, thanks for Alicja Waliszewska and Zdzisław Beksiński videos- polish artists are rarely known abroad and if people recognize their work, they rarely know their name. So as a Pole, dziękuję! If I find some lesser known polish artists that would be a great topic for a video, I will let you know! As for a suggestion for a video. He might be more popular now, but I really love Ivan Seal's art. It's simple, but can make an intreresting topic to research!
This is the first time that I have shed a tear over the beauty of art. Thank you so much for making this video, it touches the soul as much as her art. Thank you for the time and effort you put into this.
Her house is now an artist residency. It is an amazing house with a definate feeling inside. I stayed there for a few days when my wife did a residency there. Amazing artist Sveva was.
I'm so happy you made this doc, thank you so much! I've since learned that my family was friends with this family when they all first settled in the area, my family coming from Belgium at that time. I think this artist has been overlooked, and i only wish there was more of her works left to view ❤ Walking past her house when i was a child in the 80's, i would get the impression it was haunted, and never seeing the residents just added to the mystique. The house is now a lovely gallery and artist-in-residence space with many neighborhood events and fundraisers throughout the year. Thanks again for all the insightful work.
Wow! How come it's a gallery now? Is it in her memory? I hope you showed them this video and told them it was your suggestion, what a cool history! Thank you and blind dweller for keeping Svevas legacy alive!
I must say this video has deeply touched me as an artist who is also highly inspired by different religions and mythology in cultures. I am so glad to know Caetani and her life story as she is truly inspiring.
I'd never heard of Sveva Caetani before! Thank you for introducing her art and her life story to us! There is a dream like quality to her work and it's so ethereal. She certainly had a difficult life, yet there was no trace of bitterness or anger in her art. Some of the pictures were tinged with sadness though. Sveva must have been a very forgiving person. Many of her life experiences were represented in her art, which added an interesting perspective to her work. The huge Italian Villa she used to live in, signified a longing for her early years and maybe a return to that way of life. Sveva was a brilliant artist. Thank you for the informative video! You may want to review the fascinating Australian artist Vali Myers. She is one of my favourite people. Vali's life story is incredible and her body of work is spectacular!
Thanks for watching Nicole 😊 that's a very good point you make about her art not having any anger or bitterness within it, certainly speaks volumes about her character! And I'll give Vali Myers a look, cheers for the suggestion!
@@toniappleby7655 Wow, that would've been a fascinating class to be in! I imagine the lessons were amazing and everyone looked forward to attending. You're so lucky!
this was such a good introduction to Sveva and her work, thank you! i'd never heard of her, but her work is so good. managed to find a copy of recapitulation for less than $100, and i blame you, lol.
I’m so glad I’ve discovered your channel, I enjoy the introduction to artists that I’ve yet to know exist(ed). Thank you, I appreciate the work you do.
It's always going to be a great day when there's new Blind Dweller posted to UA-cam! Thanks again for sharing these artists with us. You really do such thought provoking work.
I love this channel so much, I have actually never heard of Sveva Caetani but her life and her artwork is extremely fascinating. Her art is so dreamlike and incredibly beautiful, thank you so much for your research and your wonderful videos.
Really interesting video, I found out about your channel a few weeks ago and I realized that learning about other artists has a greater impact on my art than I thought. Thank you! :)
Thank you for revealing this artist to me. I am moved greatly that she finally got repaid for all the damages done to her in the first half of her life. There are some similarities between what happened to her and what happened to me that have made watching this a somber experience.
I have never heard of her before. This was very informative and fascinating. I love looking at watercolor paintings rather than creating them myself lol. This satisfied that part of me that likes watercolor art.
I really love the artists you talk about of your channel. Fifteen minutes into this video and my creative block went away, and I got to learn something new. Keep the good job going, your work is amazing.
I mentioned that very thing to my brother about a year ago! He wanted to argue about it but he was an English Lit professor and he's probably stuck on the conventions of scholarly essays and how a term paper ought to look. ;)
I'm glad that the AFA did not reject her works and that they sought to preserve it. like many artists she was not validated in her lifetime. It is always a big threat that as an artist your work will tossed in the garbage after death by family members who don't understand art.
I have only just fell over these days amazing and interesting channel. I can really feel the emotions and you make it so attention gripping. I find myself looking forward to seeing more.Thank you so much for putting a little light back to my days
Wonderful. Inspiring. Fitting soundtrack to show the dream like visions of sveva. I believe Italian women have a long tradition of mystical practices and insights that have been forgotten .
The Medusa Theory; Kinda makes sense when you realize just how evil the greek gods actually were. For example; Hera; Zeus being an unfaithful horndog(His body count is modern numbers, at LEAST 40 women. Not counting men and animals) went down to Libya and got it on with the countries queen, Lamia. Hera was so pissed off that she killed all the children Zeus father'd with Lamia and turned the queen into a, well, Lamia. Which is like a gorgon. Except they steal souls instead of petrify. Athena; She was so vain that when she lost a weaving competition to the weaver of Athens(the literal city named after her) she turned the weaver she lost to into a half spider. Commenly known as Dryders in D&D and as Arachnera(Which is rumored to be the weavers actual name) in Japanese fiction. And that's just the two that come to mind out of dozens of legends that exist. So I fully believe Athena would be such a self-centered trollop that should would punish Medusa for being aped in her temple by making her ugly. Totally within her behavior.
This was a truly inspiring story. So glad to know she actually got to live and share her art with us. ❤ A beautiful mind and person who cared. Also love her massive middle finger to fascism and religion. She seemed a very empathic and clever bird 😏.
Her idea of humans being cruel to humans and humans being cruel to animals as some of the greatest sins, I can get behind that. So true, humans are the problem, always have been, humans create their own suffering, then theres the rest of us people and animals just attempting to live.
Hey Blind Dweller. Have you ever considered looking at Oswaldo Guayasamín? He was a famous artist from my mother's home country, Ecuador. And his art has really fascinated me since a young age. I think his artwork is something that might be up your alley.
I can see her father being introduced into a massive ballroom as they did in old Europe, after hailing him with all of his titles, the waiting invited guests would have been expecting a dozen people or more!
I think your viewers would enjoy a video on artist, JOE COLEMAN... Would like to see your take on his work. Thank you for introducing me to new artists 🙏🏼
I hate that I have ass memory and I would binge watch art videos and remember all their stories so that I could share in conversations in social settings to keep it interesting but I never remember the name of the artist so I would end up sounding stupid and never bring it up
Thank you for featuring my artwork in the artist corner segment and thank you for the artists you have featured. Very cool of you !!!!!!
No worries mate! Keep up the good work 😁
Incredible stuff craig, you should feel very proud. Is that some stephen gamell influence i sense?
@@gerrodgeneral6442 no problem that's cool! I will check out the artist you mentioned as well ☺️

Some valuable lessons to be learned for sure.
Her house is now an artist residency. It is an amazing house with a definate feeling inside. I stayed there for a few days when my wife did a residency there. Amazing artist Sveva was.
I think you should do a video on Alice Neel! She's my favorite artist and had such an interesting personality and life!
Alice Neel is the best
I'm so happy you made this doc, thank you so much!

@@anima6035 yes, it's all her history. Also, the AFA recently gave the pieces back to Caetani House, so they are all home now ❤🙏❤
I must say this video has deeply touched me as an artist who is also highly inspired by different religions and mythology in cultures. I am so glad to know Caetani and her life story as she is truly inspiring.
Absolutely fantastic! I love seeing the influences of Dante's Divine Comedy in her artwork! Stunningly gorgeous use of colors & textures!🌹🔥💜

Reminds me of Frida Kahlo’s work
Both similarly house bound
Beautiful artists
It's exciting to know that there's always beautiful new art to be discovered! Thank you for introducing me to Sveva Caetani.
Thanks for watching 😁
Thank you for this fantastic video!!
One of my favorite channels. Thank you for exposing this beautiful tortured artist. These deserve to be in museums if they're not already!
i think her father would be proud of her as an artist
If I can, I would like to suggest Camille Claudel as a topic for one of your future videos. I think that her life story was quite interesting.
Thanks!
Thanks for watching Pamela!
I was thinking the same about her story being a great movie.
You’re my favorite UA-camr. I love your segments. It’s like watching documentaries. Thank you for making these videos. 😊❤
😂
Wow!! I just added this dear woman to the April 28th death roster (1998) in Wikipedia. Sveva -- thanks for keeping the faith.
this was such a good introduction to Sveva and her work, thank you! i'd never heard of her, but her work is so good. managed to find a copy of recapitulation for less than $100, and i blame you, lol.

I agree!
I really love the artists you talk about of your channel. Fifteen minutes into this video and my creative block went away, and I got to learn something new. Keep the good job going, your work is amazing.
Loved this! It's so interesting how we call famous women by their first names and famous men by their last names.

another great video on a great artist with an amazing story
thank you so much for this channel
Horrifying to imagine spending her entire 20s and 30s in such an existence
The Medusa Theory; Kinda makes sense when you realize just how evil the greek gods actually were. For example;

What a beautiful, sad life. I am so glad she was able to complete her work and find freedom, hopefully happiness.

So many blind dweller videos recently!! How exciting!
congrats on the sponsorship!
Extraordinary art. Thank you.
Such a well researched and beautifully made video, again!
What an amazing artist with a fascinating yet heartbreaking backstory...❤
Aaand I'm crying. ♥️
Bravo Blind dweller You asked if we had ideas about what to cover next what about signor Antonio Ligabue
Interesting one! I love his tiger paintings. Thanks for the suggestion I'll have a think on that one 😊
Wow, thank you, it’s wonderful!
It'd be great if you mentioned Abidin Dino who is artist from Turkey. It is worth making video about his life.
Hey Blind Dweller. Have you ever considered looking at Oswaldo Guayasamín? He was a famous artist from my mother's home country, Ecuador. And his art has really fascinated me since a young age. I think his artwork is something that might be up your alley.
Great new video, always look forward for your new content! Keep up the great work
Never heard nor really into this kind of so-called art but love a story cuz everyone has 1
I can see her father being introduced into a massive ballroom as they did in old Europe, after hailing him with all of his titles, the waiting invited guests would have been expecting a dozen people or more!
Wow, that was fantastic. I’m a Canadian artist living in California. I never heard of her!!!
Omg 20/10 GREAT video. Excellent suggestion. 🌈⭐️🌟❤️
Great video, can you made the video about The art of the Thai Painter Thawan Duchanee.
Ooh I just looked up his work and it looks amazing! Will definitely bear him in mind
@@BlindDweller Thank
There is truth in the notion what When you are denied earthly pleasures, the soul begins to flourish and i think you can see that clearly in her work.
Truly a interesting video and please keep this up and art is amazing
Wow.,.the first I've heard of this genius!❤
It's crazy that even without radios or even electricity! How was the fashion so similar
Another great offering 👌
Yes im a painter with a dreadful mother we distract ourselves in art. Art is our escape.
Plucked up the last hardback 1st edition copy of her only print book last year,…..expensive yet 100% worth it!
Thanks
Modern life is just as isolating with employers as oppressive as Ophelia and work spaces just as confining.
i feel very moved by this.
I think your viewers would enjoy a video on artist, JOE COLEMAN... Would like to see your take on his work. Thank you for introducing me to new artists 🙏🏼
I'd love to see you talk about Avery Palmer's art!
hi. i would love to see a video on vali Myres please
i love your channel so much!! awesome video :) would you ever do a video on remedios varo?? she’s one of my absolute favourites!!!
Oh man her art is so beautifully strange! I've not heard of her before but I'll definitely explore more of her stuff 🙏
What is the background music?
Artists to consider reviewing~ Abdul Mati Klarwein, Burt Shonberg, Vali Meyer.
Another great video. Would love to see your analysis and thoughts on Peter Birkhauser.
Wow, her work is amazing! The Spinxes in the harbour is one of my favs!
17:30 Oh boy, that sounds like my mother!
I know the frustration of wanting an expensive book. I want one by Meinrad Craighead that costs about $150.
It's honestly kind of crazy I've never heard of this person before.
I hate that I have ass memory and I would binge watch art videos and remember all their stories so that I could share in conversations in social settings to keep it interesting but I never remember the name of the artist so I would end up sounding stupid and never bring it up
Fantastic work as always. just, you should check how to pronounce the letter “E” in Italian.
Blind, any "possible thought"s on the influence of Theosophy and the influence of
The dark side of Dr. Seuss! The midnight paintings!
💚
check out Kirill Semenov. He's always been one of my favorite artists.
Great video! (sorry, but I drink coffee ☕️! Thanks for the alternative anyway.)
Only a Frapollo94 who is maaochistic enough to attempt such a challenge will prevail.
Oh wait.
Thats you.
Congratulazioni 🎉❤
just a tip: "Mexica" is pronounced like meshika!
Hey friend, you should check out the art of Australian surrealist James Gleeson.
Hello blind dweller could you do van gogh please?
