"She Pulled My Heir"
Photographic re-enactment of one of William Hogarth's
'The Rake's Progress' paintings
Maisie Maud Broadhead ***
I think this is a fabulous family portrait, above. Maisie is in this photo with her sisters and mother. She is such an amazing talent. I love how her takes master works, re-enacts them in a photograph and she makes the pieces of jewelry that are in the re-enactments. I really enjoy the wit and clever images she creates.

Gabrielle d'Estrees by an unknown artist, 1594Long Ring 9ct Gold, brass, sapphireI love how she began her collection of work by finding a locket in a market that had a porcelain inside, a ceramic transfer photograph of an old couple. It inspired her to create amazing pieces. I love how she sneaks in an odd contemporary detail, for example the white high top sneaker on the girls feet in the background of the "Nipple Pinch"
If you were lucky to see her show in London last month at the 'Show RCA One' at the Royal College of Art, Kensington Gore...... please let me know, so I can be completely and utterly jealous!
Enjoy your day!

ReplyDeletewhat quirky, creative, and fun work. love the 'nipple pinch' "re-do."
ReplyDeleteOh, those are totally crazy, but I like it! So interesting just to see the difference in how our faces even look today compared to the 1500s or whenever. Wow.
ReplyDeletePeople are so darn clever!
ReplyDeleteLove that she used her family in that top one! And she makes the jewelry too?! How talented is this girl! thanks for the share!
