Cindy Sherman_ Untitled Film Still #14

In her Untitled Film Stills, Cindy Sherman compels us to keep looking through a strategic combination of what she depicts and what she doesn’t reveal. Her creative strategy ensnares our attention with what we can see and expands our imagination with details that are only suggested rather than shown.
Let’s look closely, carefully, and critically at Sherman’s image.
