concept

An ultimate reflection of an affected disaffection. Clad in leather, leather that cuts skin deep. Falling apart as was contemporary culture. All about "me, me, me". The girl and the muse. Sheer transparency. Autobiographical references. Skin print telling a hundred stories and representing a collection of thoughts and nightmares in relation to social and personal issues. The traditional taking on a new life. References of history. The smell of James Dean, the attitude of Patti Smith, the feeling of sheer sex, of uncontrollable hair. Then a shock as we turn back to reality and the black, dark flesh. Unquestionably a dysfunctional beauty.
