Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
In 1490, Leonardo da Vinci delved into the architect Vitruvius' theory on human movement within circles and squares, blending the human form with geometry.
He used male models and cadavers to study and highlight the “ideal body”, emphasizing perfect proportions akin to human anatomy. This exploration, rooted in the belief that "man is the measure of all things" as the philosopher Protagoras said.
This belief impacted the understanding of the female body, historically overshadowed by the male perspective.
This series challenges the traditional focus on the Vitruvian man, now exploring anatomy through abstract, expressive strokes with a queer approach.
Imagine if Vitruvius had been a woman and Leonardo had been Leonora – how would this have shaped our world?

My garden-plot I have not kept; Faded and all-forsaken,I weep as I have never wept:Oh it was summer when I slept, It's winter now I waken.by Christina Rossetti
“Body storage” are paintings inspired by Renaissance and Baroque illustrations from medical science. The foundation of medical science was created by men via studies of the male body, i.a. corpses, which were raised from the Tiber, and were studied and drawn. Only much later was the knowledge of female anatomy incorporated into medical science and teaching. I transform my own studies of all bodies into androgynous hybrids and erase the barrier; the gender.
As a queer artist, I like to blur the lines and draw attention to what binds us together. Instead of differences, I highlight the similarities and in “Body storage”, our emotional life. Where is the feeling of being crushed stored, and which memories have been stored where? Under the skin, our memories good and bad are kept; we are a kind of warehouse of memories. Moments obtained in different cells, all the times we were broken, the traumas and defeats we suffered, but also the love, the fleeting happiness and the wounds.
