Much of the inspiration for the movement and aesthetic of this piece came from Eugenia Loli's artwork (her collages.) I was interested in the qualities of femininity, gruesomeness, absurdity, and mystery that I saw in many of her images. In addition to collage, I found that investigating Loli's work supported my other two research interests of paradox and metamorphosis.
