Claude Cahun

mY HERO OF THE WEEK...SHE WAS A GORGEOUS SELF PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER, GENDER BENDING MANIPULATOR AND LOVED WITH ALL HER HEART......Claude Cahun
Cahun's life was marked by a sense of role reversal, and her public identity became a commentary upon not only her own, but the public's notions of sexuality, gender, beauty, and logic. Her adoption of a sexually ambiguous name, and her androgynous self-portraits display a revolutionay way of thinking and creating, experimenting with her audience's understanding of photography as a documentation of reality. Her poetry challenged gender roles and attacked the increasingly modern world's social and economic boundaries. Also Cahun's participation in the Parisian Surrealist movement diversified the group's artwork and ushered in new representations. Where most Surrealist artists were men, and their primary images were of women as isolated symbols of eroticism, Cahun epitomized the chameleonic and multiple possibilities of the female identity. Her photographs, writings, and general life as an artistic and political revolutionary continue to influence countless artists, namely Cindy Sherman and Nan Goldin

This is my very talented and beautiful friend Crystal, she inspires me all the time with her art, strength and honesty....I captured her today inside of her exquisite studio space ....
Native American painting is by her Grandfather
The photograph of woman with long hair are her two great grandmothers....

Miss O's stroll through the hot rain in the big easy May 2010

this was my last 24 hours spent in the voodoo sensations and surreal heated rainstorms of THE BIG EASY..look at those heavy raindrops! I can smell the magick in the air.

i wear mink.. i don't eat it...plus

So I have made my winter hat since I live in Seattle and it is over cast over 250 days and it rains alot of those I decided instead of having flat frizzy hair when I go out at night that I'd put together some treasures that have been given to me by Vinsantos (Mink) and Christy KAne (brouhaha) thanks by the way! attached to a vintage granny hat i found at Deluxe Junk a few years back!
