Artist Bio

Doverin is a deeply silly queer artist who delights in taking images created by and for the male gaze and re-centering them for her own stupid fun. Tanks of World War II, American Interiors, Erotic Photography photo books and vintage magazines are meticulously cut by hand and glued together in physical collages, copied, enlarged and enhanced with neon spray paint, gold leaf, hand made stamps, shower curtain, and just about anything else that looks cool to become colorful mixed-media pieces. Her series 'Soft Targets' inverts images originally designed to seduce with those designed to dominate, inviting a re-examination of the aesthetics of power.

I pursued my enemies high contrast
A hand-cut collage in black and white, wherein a model regards a small naked man standing coyly in the palm of her hand. Bold magazine text across the front clarifies her intent: I pursued my enemies and overtook them. I did not turn back until they were destroyed.
mod looking for a live one
Looking for a Live One. A black and white hand-cut and glued collage featuring a topless pin-up in heels, looking down on a tank that's been run off the road and is bound in ropes.
domfront
Domfront. A delicate beauty stands topless in a gas mask, 25-feet tall before a tank-load of men, but bends politely down to them. A ruined town surrounds her and a sign, part of the original image, indicates Domfront is approximately 10km. It is clearly much closer. Hand-cut and glued collage. Black and white.
the lake of fire
A recent addition to the Soft Targets series, a ballerina gracefully arches backward to face a half-dozen comparatively small tanks and military vehicles in the foothills. Magazine text below makes clear what fate awaits the tiny tanks. HELL and The LAKE OF FIRE Are Waiting For YOU!
