For Her
found objects, fake eyelashes This arrangement is composed of multiple pedestals, each with one or more common household items placed on top of them. These items all wear a set of fake eyelashes, giving these inanimate objects, previously free of gender connotations, a hyper-feminized filter and persona. This arrangement of objects explores the notion of companies producing gender-less objects in hyper-masculine, or in this case hyper-feminine, ways, designs, or corresponding packaging and advertising. As many of the objects sold to the consumer everyday, these things in this arrangement comment on the absurdity of common items unnecessarily categorized in feminine and masculine respects. The items also speak to the absurdity of hyper-sexualized characters used in advertising and commercialism of companies. |
