UNTITLED. UNIQUE WORK. 1990.

60 x 30 x 30cm approx plush fabric, stuffing and cord. A unique work by the artist which has taken the form of a stuffed, soft sculpture of a woman’s breast (isolated, detached, alone) standing (?) proud on a pillow – the whole to be hung from the ceiling by 4 cords. Colourful and visually striking, an unique work displaying hints of a revisit to Messager’s earlier books on the torture of women as well as the potential alienation by society of overt female sexuality. Unsigned by the artist however full provenance is available. Fine estate apart from a very small hole on the underside of the base of the “pillow”. Full provenance available.
