SHORTLISTED FOR 'PRINT NOW' COMPETITION, BEARSPACE GALLERY, LONDON ART FAIR

Doll Face
Photocopy Transfer* & Pencil on Paper
420 x 297 (500 x 400mm framed)
2009
© Copyright Sally Butcher. Original source: DKNY

*transference of photocopied images using solvents which separate the ink from the original copy allowing it to be pressed onto a fresh paper surface


The work here employs techniques of printmaking and drawing. These pieces have been particularly inspired by female imagery from glossy magazines as featured in present-day advertising campaigns and fashion industry model shots. They ironically depict ideological figures of female beauty captured in doll-like poses, which are then recontextualised, following surrealist traits under a postmodern guise, to create a new encounter with elements outside the typical frame of representation.
