Ariadne (Bride) Cake

Ariadne (Bride) Cake by Lori Cuisinier

 ‘The self-referential and self-replication of the essential “femaleness” in my art had its prepubescent awakening with my family consumption of men’s entertainment magazines and my own psychosexual relationship to that imagery,” says New York-based Cuisinier. ‘The voluptuous “she” impacted my subconscious … While I was not “she”, I could dress (and undress) the part in play and fantasy’.  Posted 4 Oct 2018, (theGuardian)
