Postmodern Gothic. Fall 2006.



 
For this project, I researched myspace profiles and sketched people's personal photos. I searched for the myspace-female-sexuality aesthetic, which I personally find alienating to my version of femininity, and sketched the pictures I found in a monstrous way to demonize the figures. Basically, I made the girls I found look creepy.

I began to feel bad about using these people's personal photos, so I questioned my own role within the culture of myspace/twenty-first-century skankiness. I ended the project by drawing a portrait of myself as a myspace slut. Here are the results.
