FEMALES Volume II (with love & in death)

“FEMALES Volume II (with love & in death)”
By Phil Barrington. 2015.

My continuing focus on the female form, featuring characters expressing a range of emotions within situations throughout time and place in a world of constant turmoil.

Project description

From a parisian boudoir to the fields of wartime England, from foggy lands of dead trees to a mournful post-Raj India, this new selection of FEMALES reflects upon an inhumane side of our society that continuously attacks the vulnerable and innocent, depicting a wounded worldview of murderous revenge, despair and slavery (with a dash of hope and dark humour).

Mastectomies, matricide, occult imagery, fetishism, asphyxiation and nudity that some may interpret as sexualised.
