‘The classic garment…has a glitching visibility held in tension with the viewer’s visibility.’ 👗 Loving today’s style analysis courtesy of @badaude.bsky.social (with a nod to @minxmarple.bsky.social) 🤩

Satyr created by Mary Lorraine, c.1967, in the art therapy studio at Netherne Hospital, where she was compelled to live. One of several surviving works her paintings often depict scenes of ballet, art making & society occasions & it seems, pre-hospitalisation, she may have been a professional dancer

A pale painting of a white, grey haired satyr dressed in a grey v neck sweater, white shirt and black tie with furred legs and pointy hooves, the left hand raised to shoulder height. The figure is rather stranded in the middle of an expanse of yellowing paper, it is painted in an untaught style and there is something quite camp about the satyr’s stance but there is also a slightly unsettling quality to it. His face is not very detailed but the expression on it is certainly not friendly

because I am playful, darkly comical BECAUSE I AM AN EXHIBITIONIST because I am insistent, incessantly intimate because I am asking, what is desire? Julia Biggs, Room 5, Nasty Objects
