EV Day is an artist based in New York. She works with installations and sculptures that capture the ideas of feminism and sexuality. EV Day got her MFA in sculpture from Yale University in 1995. This piece was made from various pieces of vintage City Opera costumes and then suspended in order to simulate motion and is shown at City Opera's David H. Koch Theater in Lincoln Center in New York.

The work on the right "Shazam" was done in 2009. It is a fishnet bodysuit pigment embossing on cotton base sheets. It is 59.5 x 39.25in
The work on the left "Bride Fight" was done in 2006. It was composed of two bridal gowns with accessories, fishline and hardware.
I like the look that EV Day goes for. The elegance and abstract features of her work create somewhat of a majestic feel that can be analyzed as deeply as the viewer finds necessary.
