Description
‘In the Buff’ stands as an ode to the female form and its dynamic beauty. Speaking about the inspiration of the work, the artist speaks about celebrating individual acceptance, body positivity, and acceptance of all kinds of bodies, iterating the fluidity and omnipresence of beauty.Â
The artist fathomed into the politics of the body conceptually in this work. The intricate stitch and composition of the visible feminine figure, set in a strong palette of black, gray, and white- makes the feminine figure come out in all its beauty, strength, and wonder. The background merges into the foreground while the female form is apparent with strong lines and contours merging into abstraction. The playful use of light and shadow through the placement of fabric provides a musical chaos to the visual, which places the viewer in a wondrous headspace, appreciating the beauty of the form in movement.Â
