Marilyn Minter

I found Marilyn Minter, artist and photographer, on the website http://www.whitewallmag.com/ , and thought that she would link in well to some of my previous sample work. My use of red lips with pills greatly resemble some of Minter's work.

While I used the lips to portray people's relationship with medicine, using Susie Freeman's concept but in my own style, Marylin Minter uses her images to create a sense of glamour with a hint of sexuality. The relationship between our two works is that they both convey a perhaps false promise of pleasure.
