These paintings make a rather dramatic statement about the physical expectations of women that have been set upon them by men and society as a whole. These figures, in addition to being physically impossible in their shape, are often set in surreal or dream-like environments, emphasizing the ridiculousness of these expectations. In recent years, Lisa Yuskavage has begun to expand the horizons of her work to include the male figure. She makes use of both modern and classical techniques in her paintings, and also creates drawings that explore the same themes as her paintings. (Artist website)
