Torsos

Since my first solo exhibit in 2010 I look forward to this time of the year. Saturday, November 22 is the opening reception for my show TORSOS at the Gallery at Elemar (2 Gibbs St. New Haven, CT) from 6-9pm. You are invited!

Torsos

As I prepared for this show I read about women psychology. I am not sure how to feel about the research and statistics in this subject. A little scary I confess. According to studies “80% of women in the U.S. are dissatisfied with their appearance”. This affects their confidence, relationships, and the generations to follow.

I’ve been blessed (for lack of a better explanation) with “I don’t know what” for women to open up to me in their dissatisfaction with themselves and speak to me as if they were talking to another female friend or a dad, or a psychologist. One thing always comes to the conversation is how they dislike different body parts of their whole appearance. They look at my work and try to compare themselves generally in derogatory ways. I believe we are all a work of art and the human body is a book where different stories have been written, each one different, and all beautiful.
