At first when seeing Cindy Sherman's photographs you come to realize that all of her work explores a certain contemporary identity with the main focus on representation. While creating new bodies of work she is often influenced by images from magazines, television, movies and the internet; almost every source of media. To create her images Cindy has worked as her own model for nearly 30 years working herself in different personas then the previous. With a variety of props including makeup, wigs, costumes and props, Cindy has definitely transformed her surroundings along with herself to construct herself as many different characters often representing clown like figures that one may think came straight out of an acid trip.
