WELL NOW, série de compositions photographiques et textuelles, 2017/2018
18 photographic and textual compositions, 21x29,7cm. Under glass. Mixed media. Edition 1.
WELL NOW is based on a socio-political observation as for the persistence of Gender inequality in Art, which especially affects the distribution of the artists’s spaces of visibility according to their biological sexual identity. This observation has taken shape in a notebook, through a series of statistics started in 2016 and bringing out a recurring ratio of 1/3 (female) for 2/3 (male), and was formalized the following year with a series of photographic and textual compositions. WELL NOW uses the plastic form of the photographic report, combining text and image, to attest a posteriori to actions and gestures (initially filmed or photographed) which reflect a succession of feelings and positions faced with the active parameter of Gender in the estimate and the diffusion of artistic practices, from alienation to rage, from refusal to resistance.
