SILVER FIGURE
The Silver Figure is Foster’s first female figure, exploring traits traditionally cited as feminine. Of interest to Foster are the societal constructs and expectations around femininity, which vary across societies and individuals, and are influenced by a wide range of social and cultural factors. The Silver Figure embodies strength and power, while portraying an element of anonymity and mystery. This elegant and graceful piece appears particularly ethereal in the pictured forest setting.
