The beautifully strange mixed media piece, “The Bride” by Trix Kuijper is an interesting perspective of a bride-to-be’s image. The woman mannequin has no arms, legs, or head; only an eerie, off-white, ripped up wedding gown. On the neck sits an intricate flower with a single, menacing eye in the center. The background consists of a ramp, or aisle leading into the clouds of a teal and yellow sky. The piece is definitely a different take of a bride’s perception of getting married. It’s creepy essence and humorous idea will certainly stop you in your tracks.
