The artwork, “Body Mask,” created by Sherrie Levine in 2007, is a noted piece within the Conceptual Art movement and falls under the genre of sculpture.
The artwork consists of a metallic mold reflecting the torso of a female form. The polished, smooth surface of the sculpture suggests a reflective and almost mirror-like quality, inviting viewers to perceive not just the sculpted body but also their own reflections. The shape and form are characterized by defined, rounded contours of the upper body, including the bust. This intriguing piece exemplifies Levine’s approach to conceptual art by challenging conventional representations and provoking introspection on themes such as identity, authenticity, and the body’s portrayal in art.
