Beschreibung

The works in this exhibition are a result of an approach to bring photographic components into sculpture and to rethink the idea of primary and secondary elements that constitute an artwork. A portrait, especially a photographic image, often presupposes framing which usually plays a secondary role, supporting or underlining an image. In these works, I tried to imagine a situation, where not only an image and it´s framing become equally important elements of the composition, but also where the associations, evoked by the framing, produce the work´s meaning.

The five sculptures in this exhibition are portraits of two friends of mine, both of whom happen to be called Sebastian. These works are a result of a modest take on the question of
how can a straight woman explore her own desire in a way that flips the existing power roles without becoming a parody of the representations of the sexualized female object.
