About this artwork
The Appearances paintings simulate the worldly beauty/ power of historic Eastern deity icons such as Buddhist images of Bodhisattvas-charged with guiding souls to spiritual perfection- and link it to the manufacture of media goddesses. Henderson's tracings and manipulated fusions of these perfected bodies and her resultant distortions are intended to resonate with the consequences of identities built on visual artifice.
