Kawita Vatanajyankur: 2012

ABOUT KAWITA'S CURRENT PROJECT

My series of video work, performances and photographs are focused on the female's body and its relationship to different elements such as water, sand, wind and man-made materials such as plastic, paper, rubber and fabrics. The experimentations are developed to look at the action and reaction of the body in different spaces and environments, the transformation of the shape and form of the body that visually changed into a sculpture when affected physically from the elements and materials in order to examine the psychological, corporeal and cultural ways of viewing the human condition. The certain symbols contained in the videos are used to reflect the idea of violence, endurance, communication, as well as gender.

BODY AND ELEMENTS AT SEVENTH GALLERY

BODY AND ELEMENTS

at Seventh gallery, Melbourne, Australia

28th March - 14th April 2012

Statement

My video work is focused on the relationship between the female body, fabrics and household objects within darken, unknown spaces and environments. Under uncomfortable circumstances, the body is pressured to merge, transform and eventually become a part of the objects and environments reflecting violence, endurance, gender and communication in a cultural way.
