Carmen Elata

Barbara Duzan

A small animal head worked in ceramic and textile, its muzzle massed with beaded flowers in scarlet and green and a headdress of dried pods and seed heads rising between the ears. It is the most ornamented and least anatomical of Duzan's mixed-media pieces — the creature underneath is barely identifiable and clearly not meant to be. Where the trophy heads argue with a form, this one simply dresses. The title names a woman, and the piece is a portrait of an attitude rather than a species.
