For the prompt, I wanted to reimagine a historical figure associated in our cultural zeitgeist with drastic social changes. Marie Antoinette herself did not deliberately enact significant changes, but rather she was made into the embodiment of ecocentric grandiosity by the European press. Her beheading on October 16th, 1793, has been cemented as a symbol of revolution. In the 21st century, we are still living with significant class divides. Similarly, the 1% remains isolated from the plights of the lower class akin to the Dauphine in Versailles to the French working class. Additionally, the current global Coronavirus pandemic has disproportionately effected the economically unstable while the privileged can treat it as a self-improvement retreat or a joke. I wanted to depict this iconic figure with all the motifs of Rococo art forced into a situation of inconvenience. Though her grocery bags share the same sheer fabric of her dress, she is still weighed down by them. She wears a mismatch of coiffure wig and a party dress with sneakers to show to show the distastefulness of her opulence and the melding of bygone and contemporary values. She no longer can live in a detached reality, it has started to creep into her world.
