FEMMES FUTURISTES

​

​I have long observed that far too many of us are susceptible to self-doubt, insecurities and inhibitions. With these "Femmes Futuristes"

I want to inspire a jettisoning of such limitations, and a transformation of the self, where qualities and attitudes are chosen freely, independent of societal norms and familial pressures.

​

​​​I start with my photographs and snippets of ephemeral printed matter. Selecting bits and pieces, I construct figures whose poses suggest a sense of empowerment and possibility. Next, I situate them in venues where they are free to create their own narratives. 

​

These figures are viewed as if with x-ray vision - their patchwork interiors hinting at what they might have lived, their silhouettes offering clues as to how they have proceeded through time. They model a new energy and the prospect of a brighter future.

 

I hope we will all move forward with them, piecing together the best fragments of our personal histories and living our lives with daring authenticity.
