Artist #6

 
Artist: Joyce Neimanas
Series: Untitled
Year: 1983

Joyce Neimanas works in a variety of different mediums. Her subjects are sometimes either absurd or inane, ranging from pig ears to women browsing magazines. While I was interested in the train of thought behind her "male nude" series, which involved an odd fascination with the loincloth, I found this collage more aesthetically appealing. I have always been interested in Polaroid collages. The subject matter appears to be a woman in a plaster cast—which is somewhat intriguing. Unfortunately, I could not find a larger size image, even after perusing her website and the Art Institute's website.

  1. This is interesting of how Joyce Neimanas creates photos to make one motif.

  2. I like Joyce's work,too! I like the way she collaged the photos. The absence of the boarder, I love it.
