title: Laughing has 1,000 mothers: the grotesque goddesses of Mary Beth Edelson
abstract: This article investigates two photographs, Jumping Jack Sheela (1973) and Trickster Body (1973), both of which belong to Mary Beth Edelson’s Trickster Series (1973), a body of photographic works in which the artist attempts to redefine women’s image culture through an appeal to goddess imagery.
