ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Freud’s prototypical ‘unwholesome’ tendency, sexuality, is also the most prominent of our animal instincts. Freud described a “Madonna-whore complex,” which pegs women as either virginal, maternal, and only desiring sex for procreation; or alternately promiscuous, dirty creatures engaging in sex for pleasure without remorse. The collage Mother/Mistress, by Bonnie Gloris, represents this duality of female sexuality by uniting the upper half of a nude Bohemian woman’s body, her open arms conveying sexual availability, with the lower half of an old-fashioned matron, her hands crossed modestly over her groin.
