On my desk sits a memento from a art exhibition I recently viewed,depicting the girl above.The girl is Francesca Woodman-I say girl,but really she was a young woman,yet her photos seem to convey such strong feelings of teenage confusion,isolation,entrapment and experimentation....
I can't really put my finger on what it really is that attracts me to her work-the eerieness?,the blunt nakedness(that is rarely seen,without being sexualised),how personal they feel?, her premature death at 22 at her own doing?. All I can really put my finger on is the fact that I'm very intrigued by the person and her vast collection of work.
