BadAss Boudoir…enough said
This was part of a group art project called Badass Miniatures in the Hudson Valley, NY.
I transform an industrial product; steel as an inherently cold material, into something warm in tone with soft contouring.  This dichotomy is where my art takes shape. Steel is incredibly strong and durable. A woman has endured so much throughout time, harassment, objectification, abuse…a boudoir or dressing room is her private realm. Take a peak behind the scenes into a boudoir, the classic and private realm of Hollywood’s golden age. Women can be tough as steel and soft and feminine at the same time... think of Marilyn Monroe, Lauren Bacall, Edith Piaf, Sofia Loren, this vignette is based on a boudoir that we can only imagine, behind the scenes of a strong woman in the entertainment industry.
The room divider hides just enough, the “idea” of a woman undressed. We can only imagine what this inner sanctum hides.
