About the Work
A nude woman sits hugging her knees on a deep blue ground as ukiyo-e-style waves rise behind her, her long black hair merging with the surf — calm yet charged.
Artist’s Concept
Drawing on the idea of the “girl made to be looked at”, these images exist purely to be viewed, with little narrative. Such works tend to heighten refinement and ornament (as in ukiyo-e courtesan prints) and feature women who are unguarded and whose personalities go unregarded. The girls share no exchange of gaze or feeling with the viewer — perhaps unaware they are being watched (voyeurism?), or with mirror-like eyes that coolly return the gaze: “I know you are looking at me.” She conveys no feminine sentiment; she only reflects our desire to look. In the 1970s–90s a girl who appeared in public had to endure curious stares; anxious about marriage, work and other social barriers after graduation, girls sought refuge in girls’ schools, girls’ magazines and all-girl worlds, finding a little comfort in wistful illustrations of girls. Since 2000 society has grown freer and leisure more abundant, yet a flood of media has deepened objectification — the girls’ melancholy has not lifted, and the tangled thoughts of adolescence have not eased.
