oil on garments mounted to board

20 x 16 x 2″

I create canvases of deconstructed garments that I enrich with paint application. My works regard the dressing table in metaphor reflecting qualities of the feminine, aspects of womanhood, and identity. This piece is from a series of vignettes about the depth of emotions a female may experience reflecting in the mirror; thoughts she may have about life. Addressing the vanity as a place where one creates one-self; a study of women’s practices acts as an investigation into self and personality. Often appearing as stage-sets, vanities become theatrical platforms to speak to the evolution of femininity and the way we tear ourselves to live within what is socially accepted as feminine.
