Artist Statement:
Part II (in an ongoing
series): URBAN WARRIOR (la
femme)
Exterior: Fashion is the most
refined and powerful of all

protects and elevates its’
wearers through the projection
of wealth, culture and
up-to-date cosmopolitan

way to gain attention when
feeling invisible, beauty when
feeling ugly, interest when
feeling dull and perfection
when inside is a cacophony of
flaw. In the country, in the
city, on the street, in the
bedroom, fashion is useful
armor and should be
accordingly employed.
Interior: Why do women need to
be so thorough in artfully
protecting what lies inside?
Is the interior world of a
woman so fragile, so bloated
with potentially paralyzing
emotion that it needs such
careful guarding?
Vulnerability, desire,
innocence, prejudice,
ignorance, naivety, distrust,
trust, envy, misunderstanding,
despair, hope, helplessness,
anger, weakness or sadness may
be lurking below the surface
waiting for the rank
opportunity to compromise
rational agendas. The
interior world is dangerous:
provocative and persuasive.
Yet if the potentialities are
acknowledged and harnessed
with control but without
repression perhaps a stronger
and more vibrant power can be
seen?
