In "Six Brides," Yasumasa Morimura presents himself as six different brides across a single chromogenic print, engaging in his characteristic practice of self portraiture and appropriation that interrogates identity, gender, and representation. The work exemplifies his strategy of inhabiting and reimagining canonical images from Western art history and popular culture, here exploring notions of femininity and the bride as a cultural archetype. By mounting the chromogenic print to canvas, Morimura elevates the photographic medium to the status of traditional painting, further collapsing boundaries between high art mediums and the constructed nature of photographic representation.
