Artist's Statement: Collecting slang and derogatory words, as well as familiar expressions for describing women on different occasions or times of their lives, I attempt to create visual representations of those words. The “dress” is a specifically feminine symbol in which to reconsider these worn expressions and phrases so often taken for granted. These life-size dresses expose and cherish what composes our lives, challenging the way we see and describe women, occasionally resulting in shadowy, sometimes comic interpretations.
