Colorful paintings of the flesh are brought into public space, asking the viewer to react and reflect.

Uncovered: Works by Erin Sandsmark is a collection of works that center around the artist's body. These paintings take specific moments of interaction with the naked body, and ask the viewer to react and reflect on the flesh presented to them. Color has become increasingly important, taking on the flesh in new ways. Erin is focused on personal power, and how to use one's physicality and intellect to garner that power. Fat bodies, in these paintings, are brought into a public space, confronting a body that has been so open for judgement and disgust. Each work is about the flesh, and the complexities of having a fat, female body.
