I have been working with images found in womens' magazines. The following is part of a body of work called, "Predators or Prey?" which contains both gritty self-portraits (concentrating on the messy,interior self)and slick collages of clothing and body parts from the grocery store check-out rack. The bug-like constructs of "women" as bizarre, man-catching creatures (or victims)depict the warped ideas/images women "buy" about themselves.
