About The Artwork

This collage was hand-cut from the pages of a 1940’s mail-order catalog. It is part of a series that started as an archival exercise in which I set out to isolate and distill the cultural messages packed into the pages of these catalogs, with a sharp focus on popular portrayals of women. The women featured in my work strike me as familiar, but with a difference; they stand out to me because I see something out of the ordinary in them. I see in their poses a dignity and strength that stands in sharp contrast to contemporary representations of women in advertising. My impulse is to reinterpret their roles as divine beings.

Blythe King is a rising talent who currently breaks new ground in photography, collage, and the ancient art of gold leafing. Born in Pittsburgh in 1977, her work is heavily influenced by two legacies — the whimsical, social commentary of hometown hero Andy Warhol forged with traditional Steel Town resolve. King studied religion and art at the University of Richmond and the University of Colorado. She practiced Zen calligraphy with Stephen Addiss (The Art of Zen). But it was a textile startup in quaint Breaux Bridge, Louisiana that brought her journey into focus. For iSockits, King fashioned wildly-successful tablet covers from vintage women’s shirts. Her latest fine art project, "Two Sides of the Same Coin," is exceptional for its delicate but moving revelations. She rescues clippings from a range of vintage catalogs to open a fresh discourse around women’s issues. In addition to her art, King teaches creativity to underserved communities in Richmond, VA.
