Mannequin Collaboration Installation



I am finally putting this on here. This is the collaboration piece with the mannequin. You can click on the image to make it larger. Here's a little snipit of what the thought process is behind it:

The woman’s fears are coming alive. Her view of herself is distorted. In the fabric beneath her there are distorted breasts and rolls of flesh. Each member took on a different area of distortion. In every woman there is a desire for beauty. With that desire comes questions and doubts.

The strings that bind her are significant because she is powerless over this obsession. She is a puppet to what she takes in through her senses. She compares herself to the beautiful women she sees, and she feels she is not enough.
