"These images - Untitled (Aries) and Untitled (Fathia) - stem from a performance research project led by the artist, documenting participants in the KANAL-Centre Pompidou residency (2023). The result of an act of observation, they transcend their documentary status to become works of art. Borrowing from the visual language of religious paintings, notably Titian, they depict a cis woman and a trans woman using a breast pump. By diverting this iconography from the male gaze, the artist exposes the taboos surrounding the maternal body, care, and productivity. Displayed in notice boards with an administrative aesthetic from the 1980s, the works evoke public institutions more than museums, blurring the boundaries between the private and the institutional, as well as the profane and the sacred".
