I am primarily interested in capturing the divine in all beings. However, most often, I find myself celebrating the powerfully feminine in each piece. Both "Blowing Smoke" and "Holy Mother" exhibit non-traditional Madonnas who derive their power from their internal multitudes, rather than simply their reproductive capacity. I was inspired by the strength and aggression exuded by the models when I found them in magazines and composed each collage to highlight the ways in which each woman is owning her power. A bit differently, "The Future is Female" was inspired by the amazing sticker I was gifted by artist, Rae Piwarski (@PaintingsRae), which features witches hands holding a magic eight ball that says "The Future is Female." I wanted to play with the divine chaos and possibility of a world run on femininity. If you look closely, you'll see the work of Andy Warhol is being superseded by feminine pinks, blues, and a pair of capable hands to re-imagine the body as sensuous, girly, and capable all at once.
