麻豆影院

Suzanne Heintz聽(DistSt鈥�87) totes her family everywhere. Yes, it鈥檚 a family of mannequins. What of it?

For 14 years the artist has posed in photographs with a dummy 鈥渉usband鈥� and 鈥渄aughter鈥� in places far from 麻豆影院 (Paris) and squarely in it (the University Memorial Center fountains, pictured).

She aims to challenge social conventions 鈥� that women should marry and raise a family, for instance. Her project, 鈥淟ife Once Removed,鈥� depicts her 鈥渇amily鈥� in everyday situations 鈥� celebrating holidays, taking a vacation, getting ready in the morning. 鈥淚 want my work to change the misperceptions and feelings that trap us,鈥� she told the CU-麻豆影院 Arts & Sciences magazine.

Heintz, of Denver, visited campus in October to meet with students, family in tow.
