Jessica Harrison alters<br>\nfigurines that represent traditional beauty and expectations of<br>\nwomen to be perfect and ladylike, and disfigures them into<br>\ngrotesque creations. The figures maintain their elegant poses<br>\nand beautiful attire while participating in their mutilation. This<br>\ncontrast of beauty and gore allows them to heighten one<br>\nanother. Harrison states that, \u201cBroken figurines describe a<br>\nturning inside out of middle-class Englishness; a self-destructive<br>\nornamentation where object becomes organ, private becomes<br>\npublic, inside becomes outside.\u201d Harrison challenges the taboos<br>\nplaced on feminine bodies by having her creations flaunt their<br>\ninteriors boldly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Jessica Harrison (Scottish, b. 1982) Emma from the series Broken Ladies, 2013 Found ceramic, epoxy resin, enamel paint, acrylic varnish Collection of Sara M. and <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/2021\/01\/emma-from-the-series-broken-ladies-jessica-harrison\/\" title=\"Emma from the series &#8220;Broken Ladies,&#8221; Jessica Harrison\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2347,"featured_media":49,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[2],"class_list":["post-65","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-bodiesandexpectations"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2347"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=65"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=65"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=65"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.miamioh.edu\/confrontinggreatness\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=65"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
