FEMALE GAZE
FEMALE GAZE
Pastel on paper / colored pencils on paper
Female Gaze explores and exposes male vulnerabilities in the context of sexuality and sensuality, watched from a strong female perspective. Men are depicted in the most intimate moments of a sexual connection, emphasising their fragility in a raw, ironic and poetic way.
“Stories told in each artwork are very personal to me as an artist and as a human being, which makes me even more vulnerable and exposed to the audience than my semi-fictional lovers”
This project scrutinizes bodily experience of a gendered person. I was my own model for most references of the artworks, performing a gender role that I don't always identify with personally.
Each drawing is illustrated by a poem, published as a limited edition zine (50 copies).
