Laura Ann Jacobs' pieces are witty and beautiful. The desire of the idealized woman's body fitted with unconventional trappings result in a ironic wink at seduction.
She writes, "No longer bound by constraints of clothing alone, women may now have the delightful pleasure of deforming themselves from the inside out. Where once ribs were merely moved around and internal organs forced together by outside MAN-ipulations, now ribs are removed, secondary sex characteristics are sucked up and out like so much fatty tissue, and orbic lobes of the new ideal replace God given natural endowments..."
Laura Ann lives near Boston and has exhibited her work around the country.
