75. "Historical Bikini"
Rebecca Navarro
Sugar Land, Texas
Acrylic paint is stamped, sprayed and brushed onto fabric. Top is appliqued and pieced before beading and quilting.
Museums are full of beautiful objects that educate and inspire. A Reclining Female Figure from 2400 BC was on display in a pristine museum setting. Just a few blocks away from the museum was a small fence covered with graffiti. Dressing the ancient female figure in a bikini takes her out of her element. By standing the figure in front of the graffiti covered wall, art from the past is joined to the present.
