About the Item
acrylic paint over photograph on paper.
Feeling that older women seemingly disappear in our society, Brown has created an army of them. In this series, Paperdolls, the artist began with a single nude photograph of herself, and proceeded to repeatedly “dress” the image with paint in an overwhelming myriad of variations of clothing; the only constant being her round, red glasses. With a sharp wit, Brown transforms adornment into armor. The playful becomes subtly strange in its awkward rigidity, emphasized by the repetition of the underlying forms and their placement in a large grid.
Brown’s figures portray an interesting mix of strength, vulnerability, clumsiness and confidence. They are part “Victoria’s Secret” model, part dumpy mother-of-the-bride, part Amazon warrior but all exude a palpable force to be reckoned with, a tour de force of feminine self-perception.
