About The Artwork
Courbet’s “Origin of the World” is one of the strongest nudes in European painting. Even recently it was censored on Facebook and other public media. It is often reinterpreted by contemporary artists. Her directness cannot leave us indifferent. Courbet’s painting was commissioned by a male collector, intended to male viewers, with a male way of looking at the subject. I wanted turn this image into a not voyeuristic view of the female body. The structure of the composition is reminiscent of Courbet ‘s painting. However the position evokes the reality of a gynecological examination. The sensual pleasure that we find in Courbet’s original is absent. The dark atmosphere, the biblical inscription on the chest, the image format, all these elements form my intention of reaching beyond Courbet’s intention.

What I’m most interested in my work is to make the images, more precisely, their ability of representation, relationship and connection with the tradition, reasons for being, conceptualization, form... I work in many different media. That opens up a greater scope of possible experiments where potential overlaps from one form to another. What I want to achieve a new understanding of the possibility of representation by images imbued with the legacy of our past traditions of art.
