Hour Glass Skinny


I wanted to do something with an hour glass in it - this morning Sandy went off to take a test with a little minute hour glass in tow from our Cranium board game. I thought it was really funny, so decided to make some art out of it. It ended up turning into more of a cultural statement though. I'm always so saddened by our skinny girl culture (not that we have a lot of them, but more that that is what is pushed). I always feel like I'm in some sort of weird trap when I feel pressed by the stereo type of the great skinny body. Thus the woman stuck in an hour glass shape prison. My sequel to this should be the woman breaking free and finding a truer self!
