Jim Dine Pinocchio, 2008 is a emotionally charged interpretation of the beloved wooden puppet, a recurring motif in his work. In this piece, Dine reimagines Pinocchio with bold, gestural brushstrokes and expressive palette, infusing the character with both whimsy and psychological depth. The composition reflects the artist’s deep personal connection to Pinnochio as a symbol of transformation, self-discovery, and innocent. Layes of textured paint and energetic linework add a raw, scultural quality, emphasizing tension between childhood nostalgia and existential complexity. Dine’s Pinocchio becomes a reflection of artistic reinvention and the search for identity, instead of a fairy tale figure.
