In his pig series she uses the symbols of the pigs heads to represent her experiences from living in New York City. The heads themselves draw connotations of greed and gluttony.
The series that I am looking at is her pig series titled "Narcissism" as I am interested in this idea for my upcoming project.
I like the artists use of colour in this series as I think they make the piece very striking and represent the loud, bustling city life that exists in New York. These bright colours also remind me of the large billboards and advertising banners that I've seen in parts of movies set in large cities in America.
For my next project I might use some sort of symbolism like this artist has used to represent parts of the human ego and also this idea of narcissism.
