Show of Hands
The Fighters focus on the body—its heroic power, agility, expressiveness, and its vulnerability, pain, and ultimate demise. Both images are based on iconic photographs of Muhammad Ali. In exploring the issues of human victory and defeat, I was drawn to work with industrial felt, a soft, warm, and yielding material not typically associated with masculine iconography.
