Gazing Back - Installation
This is an image of the final installation.
The reupholstered chair was transformed into a Sarah Lucas inspired piece, using period pads to stuff the tights and watermelons to fill the bra.
I used the experimental film shoot and printed the images onto acetate, which I then glued onto mirrors. I created a peep-show-inspired-box where I attached rich, velvet, red curtains, inspired by Diego Velasquez's use of rich colour to sexualise the female figure.
I framed the photograph of my Granny, making it bolder, and hung the other black and white images around her face.
The image of my Granny was also reflected into the mirrors within the peep-show-inspired-box.
I displayed my prints on the other wall, taking inspiration from Kara Walkers silhouetted paper cut-outs.
I also created a mod-roc mould of breasts, which can be seen within the next few images.
