Sculpture Artist

I enjoyed learning about Jessica Harrison and her art work of putting a spin on something very traditional. Jessica Harrison is a Scotland-based artist who studied he relationship between interior and exterior spaces of the body, an area of study that is directly reflected in her artwork. The artists' use of tattoos on her work really interested me because I have always loved tattoos and have always appreciated them as a body-art form. Recently having gotten a tattoo I enjoy them even more and love seeing other peoples tattoos as it reflects them in their own way. Her depiction of offering a new way of seeing the body despite the traditional view of a woman also depicts the changes from history in how women are viewed today in comparison to how they were viewed in the past. This also depicts how tattoos are now viewed differently than they may have been in the past as they have become more of a "norm".
