GERMANY

THIS WORK MERGES THE FACE OF LADY MADELINE WITH THE GERMAN FLAG.
LADY MADELINE SYMBOLIZES MEMORY, RECONSTRUCTION, AND THE QUIET STRENGTH THAT EMERGES AFTER COLLAPSE.

THE FLAG BECOMES A MASK.
THE MASK BECOMES A RESPONSIBILITY.

IN THE CONTEXT OF WAR OF NATIONS, GERMANY IS PORTRAYED AS A POWER SHAPED BY ITS PAST. INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH AND ECONOMIC INFLUENCE OPERATE ALONGSIDE A HISTORICAL CONSCIOUSNESS THAT CONTINUES TO DEFINE ITS ROLE IN EUROPE AND BEYOND.

LADY MADELINE INTRODUCES A QUESTION:
CAN A NATION CARRY MEMORY WITHOUT BEING PARALYZED BY IT?
CAN POWER EXIST WITHOUT REPEATING ITS OWN SHADOW?

THIS WORK DOES NOT REOPEN HISTORY.
IT EXAMINES HOW HISTORY LIVES WITHIN POWER.

A COLLISION OF SCULPTURE, PHOTOGRAPHY, AND DIGITAL MANIPULATION. THIS WORK IS CONSTRUCTED FROM ORIGINAL IMAGES OF BRONZE SCULPTURES, LAYERED WITH PHOTOGRAPHIC ELEMENTS AND REASSEMBLED THROUGH DIGITAL COLLAGE.

THIS DIGITAL ARTWORK CAN BE PRINTED IN ANY OF THE SIZES AVAILABLE IN THE DROP DOWN BOX.
