TITLE: The Friends of the Friends
DATE: 2002
MEDIA: ink and powdered milk on vellum
DESCRIPTION: Akin to sketches from Dr.Moreau's wedding album, The Friends of the Friends uses a mixture of old wedding photographs coupled with a care and feeding manual for dwarf rabbits as the inspiration. I sketched "portraits" of mothers and their children, sisters, and lone flower girls, modified with ears and hare lips from the rabbits. The ensuing images seem remarkably familar, even with the "transgenic" nature of the sitters.
