| Description |
Painting by Melissa Miller, New Skin (oil on linen, 64" x 72", 1988). The image illustrates a mature phase and body of work in Melissa Miller's career that began in the later 1980s, and brought continued recognition, in which the looser animals of her early work gave way to tighter, more realistic protagonists that interacted with humanoids and mythological or fictional characters in fantastical scenarios inspired by Eastern and Western folk tales. This work and similar works have been publicly exhibited in prominent venues in the U.S., widely discussed in major art journals and daily press publications, and acquired by major museums. |

| Purpose of use |
The image serves an informational and educational purpose as the primary means of illustrating a mature phase and body of work in Melissa Miller's career that began in the later 1980s, and brought continued recognition, in which the looser animals of her early work gave way to tighter, more realistic protagonists that interacted with humanoids and mythological or fictional characters (angels, demons, spirits) in fantastical scenarios inspired by Eastern and Western folk tales. These works emphasized psychological states and existential dilemmas rather than external observation and included allegorical depictions of spontaneous metamorphosis, mortal crisis, and flight from catastrophe. Because the article is about an artist and her work, the omission of the image would significantly limit a reader's understanding and ability to visualize this key, mature phase in her work, which attracted exhibition selections in traveling shows, national reviews, and museum acquisitions. Miller's work of this type and this work in particular is discussed in the article and by prominent critics cited in the article. |
