EXPOSED

The project explores the nature of emotions through the act of fight. In a brutal male world emotionality is often equated with weakness, but at the same time the very act of struggle, show of strength, close physical contact with an opponent are strong and not restrained expressions of emotion. Brutality and aggression are akin to a scream expressed through the body. Contradiction between the external male emotional restraint and a strong release of emotions create a tangible tension in space and involve the viewer in to a joint comprehension of the primal nature of human expression

SHOWER TRIPTYCH

I was born in a tent in Crimea, at the base of the Manhup mountain. This was no accident, my young parents deliberately traveled to Crimea by train to give birth to me there. Obviously, I don’t remember the first days of my life spent in the wild nature with my mom and dad, just the three of us in a tent, but in my mind it is a perfect little incapsulated, happy world. Thinking of the events of our later lives, relationships between parents and children, contemplating my own future motherhood, I sometimes mentally go back there, to the tent at the base of the Manhup mountain.  This project is about me, my mom and my dad, a fantasy of a perfect family, about all parents and all children, about a starting point and a short moment of unity and happiness.
