Bring out the hidden beauty
Acrylic, vintage magazine clipping and mixed media on canvas
32×34 inches
Embedded within this painting is a page from a 1924 American woman’s magazine. The adverts offer all kinds of things to define a woman and make her the picture of domesticity. One ad rang out loudly the promise to “Bring out the hidden beauty”. The meaning of these words and the interpretation can be two very, very different things. This piece is part of her current work looking at the relationships between the individual and cultural norms inherited in society.
Deep lines are etched across the surface of the piece, drawing connections and delineating space that captures the adverts page. The painting is hand stretched gallery wrapped deep canvas with a finished white edge.
