Dressing Miz Eve
Cast Bronze, 2005
24" x 10" x 36"
The old rusty mirror spat back an image of two refugees entwined amidst the same evils. The span of time between their ages is etched into their faces, one prophesying what the other will become.
Mariah is seen here dressing young Eve as if in preparation for a sacrificial event. The older woman expresses no feeling of remorse, because she has trod this same path in her own life. The two of them playfully mimic the rituals of their mistress, while being conscious of the fact that all women, no matter what their status in life, experience the same subjugation to the whims of a man's pleasure.
