ABOUT THE ARTWORK
This series investigates young women, all born around the year 2000, as a contemporary generation of neoclassical muses. They portray a radical, yet neutral demeanor around sexuality and self-acceptance. They dwell in self-ownership, supported by social media communities and body positivity movements of the last five years. They warmly and intimately inhabit their bodies in opposition to, and in spite of, the circumstances experienced by my own very recent generation in our youth. They have compassion for themselves which extends into each other. This body of work applauds the diverse, bold, positive women I see growing up around me. These women will inherit our shifting system of gendered existence and likely finish breaking it, or licking it down to its cone.

My work and investigations focus on the female existence within established concepts of beauty. Through a variety of media it discovers, exposes, and challenges aesthetic standards that create familiar archetypes, and presents visual realities that both invite and defy aesthetic expectations. My art records the damage that pervasive beauty canons and limited definitions of these create in a group and in an individual’s perception of body, beauty, and self worth. It documents countervailing declarations of beauty and historical shifts in standards and their subjectivity. It explores a series of visual commonalities-- aesthetic systems within a class, culture, or social structure. In my immersive surveys of communities of different classes of women, I observe the varying definitions of beauty that form collectively and organically, or are passed down inter-generationally despite prevailing global standards.
