Ongoing art project
Meike Janssens
I create objects that raise questions about the position of women, the idea “If you want to be beautiful, you must suffer” and gender.
To research those themes I cruise trough (fashion)history, but I also play with art history, myths, social and political events.
By conceiving the objects as bizarre, often uncomfortable, portable sculptures I want to play on larger mechanisms such as relationships between subject and object, femininity, vulnerability and more in general identintity.
I start with ceramics and make a crossover to photography, video and performance.
