'Transthetic (Stage 1)'.
'Transthetic' is a depiction of human obsession with vanity, appearance and fashion as a 'second skin' in the literal sense. My inspiration for her came from the French performance-
artist 'Orlan', who undergoes cosmetic surgery in the name of art.
'Transthetic' is essentially neither clothed nor completely nude, she is accessorised and rolled into one purely as part of a utopian aesthetic.
