expressure

2021, The title of this photo series combines the English words expression and pressure. With this information given, the viewer can very quickly recognize parts of the body pressed against a fabric, which give the impression of wanting to communicate with the him/her. By pressing and pushing, but also by pulling and deforming the fabric, abstract gestures are created, the resulting three-dimensionality almost makes the body fall out of the frame. They visualize inner pressure that wants to be carried outwards in different ways in the form of expression. The fabric processed in the performance functions as a net that holds on and back. Inside and outside are separated by this flexible, malleable layer. A soft surface, comparable to the human skin, which is on the one hand a sensitive organ and on the other a border that clearly separates inside and outside.
