Title: Worn In
Description: "Worn In" is a sculptural cup I made to represent the overlap between the outward and inward embrace of femininity. To achieve a trompe l'oeil look, I used real denim to imprint the vessel, with the belt acting as a handle for my work. The rub-on-rub-off glazing method gives my skirt a worn-in, well-loved feeling. The skirt is often a symbol of femininity and has restricted women to fitting the ‘proper’ image. Through the casual look of my piece, I aim to show how femininity has been embraced in a way that reclaims power as a means of self-expression.
