Relief with life-casts in plaster, metal, mirror and
silk stocking.
All
three pieces are from a series I did during my diploma
course at Chelsea College of Art, 1966-69. I had a series
of triangular mirrors mounted on flexible fabric. The
image of my model was reflected in the mirrors and I
could vary the relationship of one part to another.
I made a series of painting and multi-media renditions
of the reflective juxtapositions. I wanted to get away
from the 'fixed frame' so I used the parallelogram instead
of the rectangle or square. Also, I wanted to get away
from the stereotype of the artist's model by having
her wear black stockings.
