In this portrait of Marge Simpson, I wanted to capture what I think is her character at its most complex and in a situation that I think I have felt myself in throughout my life and career. She has, by chance, had access to a new social status as a result of finding a Chanel suit in a thrift store. She becomes enamored with this new upper-class environment of the exclusive country club that she begins to attend. However, she is forced to confront the disparity between this new world she is desperately wanting to become a part of and her true, more modest socio-economic background, to the point that it causes her and her values and family relations to suffer as she strains to give an image of wealth and refinement. And yet, in one decisive move, she pushes even farther by spending their savings on a new gown at a Chanel boutique, only to then feel a tender loneliness when she sees how apart she has grown from her family (Scenes from the Class Struggle in Springfield, 1996).
