Meaning & Analysis

Bijou Gets Undressed 4 is somewhat symmetrical in its composition, showing the central figure face-on and two figures on either side in opposing stances. The figure is defined by her sensual, elegant poses that are familiar from pop culture and film, thus allowing the viewer to project their own experiences onto the image. This paradox between the familiar and the unknown that the print conveys is highlighted by Opie’s anonymisation of the model, her head a mere blank circle floating above her body.

Never erasing the personality of his models, Opie emphasises the particularities of an individual through the reduction of frivolous details and a focus on pose. At the same time, there is a utilitarian quality to Opie’s visual language through his use of simplified shape and form to create a system of signs. In doing this, Opie asks the viewer whether we are all reducible to predetermined ‘types.’
