Opie is perhaps best known for her formal color-saturated portraits.
These pieces brilliantly use classic portraiture form for contemporary
subjects. Transgender, pierced, scarred, bleeding, cross-dressing
subjects confront the viewer with defiant, curious, confident,
sometimes plaintive attitudes. The classic meets the "fringe" and the
two marry to create a rare, confrontational beauty.
