Facing the abject

My collection streamed from the analysis of monstrous femininity and how this has evolved into today’s myth of the 'bad girl'. I investigated the idea of monstrous femininity and the abject in a series of performances that confront the viewers with the visceral and grotesque that is highly censored in our culture. At the same time, I explored these ideas in the virtual space as opposed to the real, being the VR an immersive space that allows the isolation of the viewers in a moment of intimate self-pleasure.
