Artist Statement: "I recall that a great philosopher found that 'To die is to lose interest.' Barely tangent to the world, why am I unable to crumble into dust at once, right here, two kilometers from the Porte Maillot? But since God the Father wants nothing to do with me in his Paradise, the same as yesterday, I must go on using objects, earthly creatures. Today, however I am not inclined to make advances. Fortunately the other is here to save me. The other feels that thinking has gone on too long. I hear: It's time to go home. It's true dawn leads to love. Let's go." Rene' Crevel: My Body and I, 1925 Clothes for a Summer Hotel and Hard Candy, still lives and short stories explore the human condition, both psychologically and physically. Some of the oldest and most common similes and metaphors relating to the human body move along a horticultural line. The body in this context indicates the female body. The stories are works told from a feminine point of view, rather than a feminist statement. Nothing is closer to us than our bodies. This is the surface and membrane through which all our experiences is filtered. The skin, the largest body organ of all, permits tactile impulses to pass via the nerves and synapses into the brain. Our external features give an impression of permanence, but the skin is in a constant flux. The unambiguous carnal aspect touches both on the devotion and the devouring of the body. There is an aspect of gluttony, an excessive use of edible ingredients, a strong momentum of sexual excitement, but also of repulsion. Oral obsessions whether sexual or nutritional, speak of violence, despite softness and sensuality. And ultimately, they speak of death. Not necessarily in a finite sense, but as a metaphor for selflessness, a loss of control as means of reaching other layers of experience.My interest is relations between people, how we intuitively perceive and negotiate the space between the others and ourselves, and how our experience of proximity is open to illusions. It is precisely these uncertainties in the communicative situation that my work aims at interrogating."Just as in love this illusion exists, this illusion of being able never to forget, so I was under the illusion that I would never forget. Just as in love."Marguerite Duras: Hiroshima Mon Amour, 1960
