Block Mount Screen Print. 2004
One of a series of Block mount screen prints: ‘Fag ‘n Wine’;
‘And They All Charged In Like Malee Bulls’; ‘Cardigan Coat’; Glomeshh Monster’ ; and, ‘Dolly’.
The drawings are doodles, in which two of the doodles were later made into sculptures.
The top left was made into two sculptures, and the bottom right doodle was made into a sculpture.

Block Mount Screen Print. 2004
This is one of a series of six block mounted screen prints.
The other works are: ‘Cardigan Coat’; ‘And They All Rushed In Like Malee Bulls’; Glomeshh Monster’; The Four Oddballs’; and ‘Fag ‘N Wine’.
This work is a conceptual piece regarding the loss of a little kitten named ‘Dolly’.
Images show the angst, the ritual of burial, the natural disaster symbol,
and the thoughts of loss running around within the head itself.
Top: Bust made of graphite and cement, with treatment finishes. 2004
Below: Bust made of plaster and latex with embellishments of needlework, stitching and cotton thread.
Like The Beauty Myth Series photographic images in this section, these two busts portray the inner female,
and the outer female. The top bust showing a female with one eye open, and the other eye closed.
Her hair ornately coiffed. She is the inner part of the female psyche. The Animus.
The bust below represents the female with a face made of latex (representing plastic surgery).
On one side of the face, the latex has been cut open from the molding underneath,
then resewn representing the stitching required for remodeling.
Here too, her hair is coiffed, and her face renewed.
She too, still looks inward, but her exterior represents the Anima,
which is needed to take on the action and causality in deduction and change.
Photographic manipulated images. 2004. W.S.U.
Anna Boros as Artist As Director and Model, & Craig Lewin, Photographer.
These images portray the narrative of the ‘before’s and after’s’
of what plastic surgery effect can have on females: the first image shows the contemplative possible sacrifice and self awareness.
The thought of not being perfect enough- purely a cultural reasoning.
The 2nd image shows the privacy needed in that contemplation and decision making.
The third image portraying the possible kickbacks of judgment by others and her expressed resentment toward
others because of their judgment.
The fourth image shows the end result of ‘plastic’ confidence, and whether the confidence
is through actualisation through the surgery, or the self assurance of the final decision making.
The book titled ‘The Beauty Myth’ by Naomi Wolf, is a very interesting book regarding how our
cultural images are used against women in our society. You can read an interesting dialogue on the book in Wiki.
Just type in the title of the book. Happy reading.
Treated plaster. 2004. W.S.U.
This work is a work in the Femininity Series. This work portrays representational textile netting,
and rib like ‘boning at the top of the work.
It is said that Adam gave his rib bone to God to fashion a partner named Eve, and have her as his partner.
Here then, the narrative is clear.
Treated plaster sculpture. 2004
This is one of the sculptures I made at W.S.U. The concept is an androgynously
expressed work, being young male chest on the front (showing),
and female abdomen at the back.
It is a Minimalist piece, and is intended to be felt and touched to understand
how the curvature and line of the sculpture expresses its concept .
This work was printed on acid-free rice paper. Circa 2004
When printing on high quality thick, refined rice paper, the
results are quite beautiful, producing a satin like sheen.
Linocut Jigsaw Print on Acid -Free Card. 2004
Here’s another way of using the Linocut printing method.
Watercolour and ink on acid free paper. 2004
Doodling is an interesting art to do. In my art uni days I studied Trance Art and Doodling . Doodling and Trance Art do
not need psychedelic drugs to effect an outcome.
