Male, Female. Female, Male.
Charcoal on Paper.
36"x 72"
In our contemporary culture the lines of gender are often unclear, leading us to immediately label figures as masculine or feminine, male or female, or man or woman. In my most recent work, Male, Female. Female, Male., I attempt to explore the notion of gender simply as a construct of our society, removed from the anatomy of an individuals sex. Displaying two figures, anatomically female, by creating a scene devoid of any identifiers of gender I attempt to leave the viewer in the dark in regards to the figures gender.
