The Disney Princess meets the modern woman.









But where is the middle?

This images are my first step towards talking about the princess and the real live fleshy, female body. At first I was taking out all the features of the Princess, replacing them with my own. but as my process evolved, I realized the growing duality in the expectation and obligations of the Princess. In my newer images, I am focusing on her interactions with her "subjects." She keeps her smile, but obtains my eyes. Her smile is her way of getting what she wants. My eyes are the reality of the situation.. being, the same things that liberate her also cage her in.
