6. "Maria Bard" Matt Saunders
2. Title: Maria Bard
3. Medium: Ink on a synthetic polymer sheet
4. Size: 8 x 6.5"
5. Discussion: To me, this figure is a wonderful example of fluidity. The figure dances with a dress draping off her shoulders. She dances with energy rather than the typical grace. She wears a smile as she invites the viewer, no matter the gender, to dance alongside her. Her physical appearance is more feminine in nature but there are elements that one could interpret as masculine. I chose this piece because of the mirror image between her fluid dance moves and fluid identity.
