In this portrait, Liminal Regency reimagines Nile Valley regality through a lens of contemporary beauty and quiet authority. A woman gazes directly forward, centered and fully adorned, present without ornamentation. Every element is intentional: the golden headpiece, braided indigo hair, the teal curtain backdrop. She does not perform for the viewer. She occupies.

The painting draws from pharaonic iconography through frontal composition, stylized adornment, and echoes of turquoise and gold. Rather than reconstruction, the work is speculative. The figure is imagined from a parallel timeline in which Nile Valley codes evolved into a glamorously mythic futurism, both ancient and unmistakably new.

Painted with smooth, luminous oils on wood panel, the surface carries a restrained radiance. There is no spectacle here. Only presence.

Original oil painting. One of a kind.

Art From An Alternate Timeline.

In Joli’s work, she masterfully transports these imagined pieces into our world, providing a window into an alternate history through her artistic insight, encouraging viewers to delve into and reflect upon a past distinct from ours.

Experience how imaginative visions from other worlds can challenge and expand our understanding of history and ourselves. Perhaps by contemplating these alternate histories, we can better envision a future history—one that future generations can look back on with pride.

Every painting of Joli whispers of worlds unseen. Here, the traditional is inverted, and women take center stage. Not as objects for the male gaze, but as powerful embodiments of strength, intellect, and influence.

Each of Joli’s paintings are a window into a parallel world: a world unshackled by prejudice, a resonant testament to the power of diversity, of what could have been, and what can be...

Embrace the artistry that dares to ask "what if?" and "why not?" Let each piece become a testament to the belief in the importance of representation and the power of imagination to shape a brighter future.
