Drawing - Fine Art Lithograph
Description
One immediately observes that there is something positively disturbing about this matrix of bones, cartilage and flesh, all swathed tightly together by layers of cloth. A construct emerges of a young female, upright and defiant, whose seemingly sweet smile is juxtaposed against the constraints of her body, superficially content, she betrays a concealed turmoil. This woman has wants, needs and desires woven into the fabric of her being... There are emotions, thoughts and life experience all bottled up to a point of breaking, as if the life rejuvenating energies capable of stirring life into the dead bones paused in distress, hardening the veins once pulsing with blood. The work's powerful narrative identifies with women regardless of their ethnicity who long to be unshackled, their voices heard and opinions counted...
"Allegory of Woman" was created directly on a well polished limestone tablet with a special lithographic grease pencil and then etched with acid. This laborious technique was first introduced in Germany in 1796, and today is practiced primarily by fine art printmakers.?
