Double Portraits. Transferred Graphite, Acrylic and Tracing Paper on Wood Panel
As I engaged in deeper research on fewer specific aspects of our identity, I became profoundly drawn to extreme fusional relationships that exhaust the sense of individuality. By using and manipulating with great obsession, documents depicting Marina Abramovicz and Ulay while intensely performing, Genesis P Orridge and Lady Jaye attempting to resemble each other, Linda Montano and Tehching Hsieh practicing the far-off “year of the rope” or Oskar Kokoschka portraying himself along with Alma Mahler, I include in my work cases of individual disappearance through extreme collaboration and witness its deep impact on the process involved in my practice.
