Work

Shirley Kaneda is an abstract painter. Her large oil paintings on canvas have been described as "neon-hued, wavy, biomorphic," and "all about the state of liquidity." In discussing her own work, Kaneda once explained, "I think of myself as continuing the process of demystifying the ideation of values, such as the heroic, the aggressive, the optical, and the rational, that used to be associated with the masculine....I use my work to metaphorically promote such nonheroic themes as the decorative, beauty, fluidity, diversity, and so on."
