Simultaneous Dresses (Three Women, Forms, Colours) 1925

Sonia Delaunay painted 'Simultaneous Dresses' sometime in the 20th Century with oils, and I imagine her brush dancing across the canvas, building this pictorial space through color and form. The painting features three women in dresses, each a burst of geometric energy. Looking at these patterns, I get a sense of someone who just loved putting colours together. Think about the artist making decisions, simplifying a dress down to its purest shapes, and then going wild with color! Delaunay was part of a movement called Simultaneism. I imagine her thinking about this concept - how colours interact and create a dynamic sense of movement and rhythm. It's like she’s not just painting dresses, but painting a whole new way of seeing. Painters are always responding to each other, building on what came before. Delaunay’s dresses are her own visual language. Painting like this offers us a way to experience the world. It’s not about fixed meanings but about embracing the dance of perception.
