Cindy Sherman — 1980-87
Cindy Sherman

1980-87

A striking gelatin silver print diptych by Cindy Sherman, created between 1980 and 1987, presented on semi-gloss double weight photo paper with full margins intact. As with much of Sherman's practice, the work likely explores themes of identity, femininity, and constructed personas through the artist's use of herself as subject and performer. The diptych format invites a dialogue between two images, amplifying the tension between reality and artifice that defines her celebrated body of work.
