Cindy Sherman is a diverse photographer who takes on many roles in her works, model, makeup artist, photographer, etc. She makes her works from seeing images on tv, movies and more showing status, youth, gore and more. You wouldn't know just from looking at these images that this is the same person across all of her works. She has done a great job of assuming roles for each of her collections put together.
In her works she is challenging what we think of gender and identity, sometimes going completely overboard with what we would see as feminine or masculine in an attempt to poke fun at these absurd things we would see as such. Some of her images are much more subtle than others that are right in your face with what she wants to say.
