Influenced by the visual language of popular culture, these works appropriate fashion magazine advertisements. The Polaroid compositions are constructed from cropped and recontextualised images arranged in grid formats, amplifying the suggestive representations of women. The titles, also lifted directly from the ads, underscore how language is used to market not only products, but also cultural ideals and gendered expectations.
