"Unspoken" (2010)

Self-drying clay.
This was my first experience with clay. I did this figure with Degas' "Dancer" in mind. I think every girl deals with the conflicting emotions she has toward her body. My figure is both exposing and hiding her body in relation to the viewer. I was in a serious relationship and developing an eating disorder, because of my insecurities and his expectations. I could not decide if I was ashamed or accepting of my body.
