About The Work
This diptych by Cindy Sherman is an excellent example of the artist's uncanny ability to skillfully alter her own appearance so that the viewer is not immediately aware that she herself is the subject. Like much of her works, these images are not intended to be self-portraits that actually represent Sherman. Instead, each is meant to be a narrative, and the characters are symbolic. These photographs are moody, mysterious, and dark. The woman on the left crouches suggestively on her hands and knees, facing the camera with a cluster of photographs in front of her, while the woman on the right slouches in a chair. The women's facial expressions are disquieting, and their relationship to each other is unclear and intriguing.
