EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Mike Moore, we are transported back to the 1990s, where boxer Pauline Dickson is captured in a moment of vulnerability and strength. Standing in the changing rooms of her boxing gym, Pauline applies lipstick before stepping into the ring. This image beautifully encapsulates the duality of femininity and power that exists within female athletes. As she meticulously glides on her lipstick, we witness a glimpse into Pauline's ritualistic preparation for battle. The juxtaposition between her delicate hand holding the lipstick tube and her muscular physique highlights both her femininity and dedication to her sport. It serves as a reminder that women can be fierce competitors while embracing their own unique sense of beauty. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph also sheds light on important themes such as protection and safety in sports. With boxing being an intense contact sport predominantly associated with men, seeing a woman like Pauline taking precautions by applying protective gear adds another layer of significance to this image. Mike Moore's skillful composition captures not only the physicality but also the determination etched across Pauline's face. Her unwavering gaze reflects an unyielding spirit ready to conquer any challenge thrown at her inside or outside the ring. This print from Memory Lane Prints allows us to appreciate not just one individual's journey but also represents countless women who have defied societal norms and shattered glass ceilings within traditionally male-dominated sports like boxing.
