Illustrator Perfectly Captures The Beauty Of Single Life

ADVERTISEMENT

Mexico-based artist Idalia Candelas draws women who are content to be alone. Using pencil, ink, and watercolor, “Postmodern Loneliness” is a series that celebrates being single. Candelas says she was inspired by her time living alone in Mexico City.

“The theme of the loneliness has been recurring in my drawings,” Candelas told Mic. “I like to show women who exist in solitude but do not suffer. They are not depressed or crying. Rather [they] are safe, exalting in the sense of enjoying the company of just herself.”

My thoughts exactly! Sure, underwear are comfortable to hang around in, but I live in an area of the world where it snows 4-6 months of the year. These pictures wouldn't be interesting in the least if the female had her hair in a bun and was wearing flannel pajamas. Ooof.

You don't have to be single to do this things. I'm in a relationship and I do all these and many more! ;-) It's about feeling comfortable!

I agree. What this has to do with being single I have no idea. I guess it's cool though to hate on love and be antisocial.

Yeah because whilst single I read my kindle semi naked, contorted and upside down whilst precariously footing large framed pictures situated above my head. And take my top off at the sink, because single life is all about being in various states of undress, except when sitting normally on the sofa in high heels. I'm all for plugging artists, but at least include some meaningful content if the drawings are otherwise sub standard.

I don't care for this series for 2 reasons. The title has the word Loneliness, which is a longing feeling and not a comfortable one. I think Candelas does not understand the difference between solitude and loneliness. Secondly, these women are shown doing nothing, except standing or lying around. I am single and comfortable with being alone, yet I am usually found playing the piano or the harp, or out in the garden, or going to a restaurant or movie alone.

Also, I think there may be a translation mistake in using the word loneliness rather than aloneness. "Aloneness is presence, fullness, aliveness, joy of being, overflowing love. You are complete. Nobody is needed, you are enough. Love makes you complete. In true relationships you share with each other, not out of need, rather from your overflowing energy."

Though it's an empowering message, I don't think it is properly illustrated. Being comfortable single doesn't really mean sitting in various rooms in your underwear, it's so much more. I feel like it's missing something. Why isn't there any image outside the house?

Wow... how creative (not) . I had no idea single women washed their hair . Was the smoking part really necessary? I'm single and these pictures are not exactly what I do. I'm busy. No time to read lying upside-down or sitting around on the sofa looking bored. I have a full time job that often requires over-time and a dog that wants taking care of.....No at all sure what this artist was trying to achieve.

When I was in a relationship my boyfriend was happy for me to slob out half dressed. His home was warmer than mine so I did. Also when you're single you're out and about more doing things not always slobbing about.

This actually captures the spirit of single women who love living alone. I purchased the book and the writing with illustrations is amazing. I've definitely been in relationships and lived with partners before. I did these things but it truly does have a different vibe, different spirit, different energy in a space you share with no one. A space in which every single item is all you, all yours, all a reflection of you...no one else. Time, space, everything in the environment, the home is just you and your's alone. It is absolutely a different feel. These women are not lonely, not bored, nothng is missing or feels empty. If you've never had years of that fantastic existence by choice, you wouldn't really get it. I can tell by the comments...many don't. I felt so SEEN in this beautiful book. I've had a partner for 7 years and still choose to live alone. It is liberating. Powerful experience. Powerful book.

Ermm.. sure we lounge around in underwear in sexy cat poses!?? PJs, noodle stained jumper, holey bed socks, double chin, blanket, watching Netflix, stuffing our faces with Pringles whilst being industrially anchored by cat whilst spitting cat hair out our mouth. Not crying. Not depressed. But comfortable and not feeling the need to be elegant and sexy, just human beings not on show.

Yea this was pretty stupid. What does being single and the joys of it have anything to do with not wearing pants in the kitchen. You can do that as a couple too. I would say, it's eating a sandwich at 8pm instead of cooking a full meal, it's going anywhere I want without having to ask or tell anyone. It's the ability to buy whatever I want, move whereever I want and not answer to anyone.

It's showing somebody who is single and rich enough to afford to live alone in a flat or house and to put the heating up high in the middle of winter and if in a relationship would be a trophy wife or girlfriend dressed up to the nines all the time even when sitting at home or doing housework. Morale of the story is not to stay single but don't be a trophy wife or girlfriend.

...and for all her "freedom" to do as she pleases... there she is, sitting on the couch all alone, and she looks bored and lonely...

I think you are confusing the word "lonely" with "being alone". If these are "women who exist in solitude but do not suffer," then they aren't lonely.

I am very comfortable doing anything in the house with my girlfriend around - yes, that includes whole days of staying inside half-naked watching movies with my legs on the headrest of the sofa. If you need to be alone to do this, your relationship is not worth much.

this used to be my beautiful life... I kinda miss it , although when I had that life I wanted to have a family -- if only it was possible to jump into my previous life only for a while...

These are wonderful illustrations! Great mood and love the simplicity. Love seeing women being comfortable with themselves.

Amazing the number of commenters here who seem to have treated these somewhat whimsical drawings as some sort of documentary.

It's showing somebody who is single and rich enough to afford to live alone in a flat or house and to put the heating up high in the middle of winter and if in a relationship would be a trophy wife or girlfriend dressed up to the nines all the time even when sitting at home or doing housework. Morale of the story is not to stay single but don't be a trophy wife or girlfriend.

Or Its just better to be alone than to date a traditional Mexican guy, because you wouldn't be able to do those things. Thats they way I saw it
