Artwork Description

Pillowfaces

0.0 x 0.0

This is the first of many incarnations of the 'Pillowfaces' installation at my 2004 graduate show at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. I made a Plexiglass etching of each of the girls' faces, which I then printed onto second hand pillowcases and finished with a bow and a pin in their hair. It is a slumber party taken out of the context of a private space; their facial expressions are frozen into a soft, comforting and familiar material. When I see this piece I hear their laughter and conversation.
