Vydia Bares All introduces a fictional persona through photographic mixed-media projects. These works combine production with nostalgic objects, such as DVD cases and drinking glasses, to evoke a handmade, tactile response. The presence of Vydia Swan in everyday items helps explain the allure of characters like Marilyn Monroe or Bettie Page. Vydia Swan exists in a different material world where icons of sex are immortal and forever remembered. Through a magazine format, Vydia Swan challenges ideas of what art is and where it can exist. This format promotes accessibility, ‘low-brow’ artifices, and a pinup revival.
