Identities are constructed through the items we own-- they begin to act as portraits of ourselves. Silhouettes are often referred to as the poor man's portrait and are thought to reveal a sort of inner truth.
Very West Coast, no? Guido also says these are none too expensive, which is another nice thing.
I love this idea. Would love to own one.
hey dani, you can!
$69 per . . . she made them as a series, but is selling individual pieces. I liked them so much I ended up going back to buy a couple.
I'm totally thrilled to buy original art - it so rarely seems like a real possibility to me...since I'm always seeing things that cost in the thousands...
You can click through to her website for a look at the rest of the series "West Coast Portraits"
There's also an email contact if you can't make it to the shop in Brooklyn before the show goes down in January.
They are available at the Reform School Gift Collective in Los Angeles 213-413-4014 along with Portias Pen & Pencil Holders.
