Description:

Finished piece, digital print 1/3

Digital photography, wax, digital layering

Costume: taffeta, silk, nylon, cotton

Costume created by me, digital photo taken by me, digitally layered, printed on pastel paper, waxed, "aged", scanned back into my pc and digitally layered again.

I was inspired to create this series, there will probably be more women in different centuries explored, when I started learning about the victims of Jack the Ripper. Every aspect of the vicitims lives were very hard, from the clothing they had to wear, their living conditions, illnesses, to their lack of education.

I’m also inspired to blend the new digital media with age old medium’s like wax and paper. A metaphor/bridge for the women of yesterday and our lives to day.

*The frame was purchased about 20 years ago at an antique store in St. Augustine, FL and is supposedly haunted…
