Clothing contains a tension of absence and presence that fascinates me. When the clothing is removed from the body, it brings about thoughts of the absence of the human body that would traditionally encompass the now empty spaces and vacuums. A nude figure, whether in physical form or in the lines of a drawing, holds the interest that it does because it reveals that which is traditionally concealed. The physicality of the Polaroid transfers imitates the creases and folds found naturally within the body and fabric. Dress can be representative of human identity; this is especially poignant for women. I attempt to convey the feeling of anonymity and insignificance that can occur with women when their identity is seen only as outward appearance.
