Erin McGean, a collage artist, disrupts typical portrayals of women in art. By layering vintage nude photos, she presents a multifaceted view of femininity. Her work, aiming to counteract objectification, instigates thought and embraces diverse experiences. Drawing from her background as a visual arts teacher, Erin has explored analog and digital collages for over 15 years.
“Cover Girrrrrl” is an NFT artwork by Erin that deconstructs and reimagines Rita Hayworth through a fragmented lens. The piece examines the glamorous and mysterious persona projected by Hollywood stars while acknowledging the false realities they create. It belongs to the “Smoke and Mirrors” series and is a collage created using vintage analog paper techniques.
