Shawnette Poe

Washing room n°0
2'39'' 2012

Varsavia, 1980
The recurrent themes of my research regard the position of contemporary identities in an unstable reality with its continuous collapse of points of reference. Oscillating between an intimate and collective dimension my works take shape through a process of synthesis of material and corporeal elements, questioning the unequivocal stability of their usual representation. The intention is to leave an image that in its essence becomes capable of ramifying autonomously, extricating itself from its origin and triggering a direct and emotional dialogue with the viewer and his own iconographic and cultural sources.
