Artist: Audrey Anastasi
Reader, oversize drawing of young woman reading, minimal color

The series shows the last existing observational drawings prior to the artist's switch to working with her non- dominant left hand.
As a feminist, Anastasi's main focus is presenting other women. Unlike the often objectified male gaze...

This feminist work of a nude gazing directly at the viewer, features graphite on mylar over cut paper, aligned to amplify the forms while maintaining the delicacy of the drawing.

The series shows the last existing observational drawings prior to the artist's switch to working with her non- dominant left hand.
