Artwork Description

Drawing on paper

Signed certificate of authenticity.

The drawing represents a significant aspect of the 'Shifting Skin' series, as it was created as part of the artist's thesis in experimental methods to remove the stigma of scars and reinforce the corporeal aesthetic. The artist found inspiration in the scrunched paper metaphor and began drawing sections of a particular sculpture, creating an allegorical representation of their own scars. Through this process, the drawing explores the corporeality of the scarred body and challenges viewers to question their preconceptions about what is considered beautiful or desirable. It is a powerful example of the series' overarching goal to celebrate the unique aesthetic of scars and to challenge negative associations, providing a powerful reminder of the inherent value and dignity of every human body, regardless of its appearance. Shifting Skin is a thought-provoking and impactful series that sheds light on an important issue and challenges societal norms.
