Dworkin&#8217;s art poignantly asks, &#8220;As we forge connections in the complex web of relationships, what do we turn away from to nurture the secure, sacred bonds of love and respect?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Sandhi Schimmel Gold&#8217;s pieces delve into the formidable influence of social norms and perceptions forged through the machinery of consumerism and media. With a unique and creative approach, she challenges us to reconsider the notion of genuine beauty. Schimmel Gold artfully deconstructs the imagery manufactured by advertisers and pop culture, using junk mail as her medium. In doing so, she constructs entirely original and authentic yet meticulously manipulated &#8216;pictures,&#8217; inviting us to simultaneously celebrate and critique a culture fixated on image, celebrity, and consumerism.<\/p>\n\r\n                <style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n                    \r\n                    #tdi_1  .td-doubleSlider-2 .td-item1 {\r\n
