Judy Chicago: Bigamy Hood Towel

Date
2022
Format
Editions
Description

The plate is based on an early image that appeared on both a painting and subsequently, a car hood. The original painting was done while I was still in graduate school at UCLA and it was greeted with derision by my painting instructors. As a result, I destroyed it, but not before laying it out on a car hood (Bigamy Hood) after I went to auto body school in order to learn to spray paint which is something that I have done throughout my career. The imagery references an interrupted connection, brought about by the deaths of both my father (when I was thirteen) and my first husband (when I was twenty-three). The symbols include a broken heart, double crosses and a phallic form that yearns for the female-centered forms at the top of the image. Produced by Prospect. 60% Cotton 40% Polyester. Machine Wash, Tumble Dry. Edition of 500 150 × 100 cm. Made in Turkey.
