Abstract

An excerpt from the catalog text, written by Emil Aleksiev:

"With its homemade photo sincerity (a brutal outburst of desire and sexual pleasure in the world of the trans-sexual kitsch spectacle) and its lucid comments, this intelligent work of art opens a series of significant questions about the relationships between the individual and society, the private and the public, the body and mind, the beautiful and the ugly, life and form, sex and death… Seemingly reduced to a joke, a provocation or a place where one can enjoy a glance into someone else’s intimacy (the work, in fact, disables the civil enjoyment in the idealized erotic body as the object of desire), Jana Jakimovska’s work publicly exposes the sizzling games with the body of politics, of power and of sex to their boiling point and evaporation in a trans-political, trans-human and trans-sexual world. This work of art is an artistic manifest of the resistance towards the culture of death."
