Bode-Museum, Berlin
2021“Somehow I feel that the fact that we put history in a static display in museums creates a separation with what is making us whom we are and alive. We can only be alive when there is no separation, nothing static but a continuum of movements through space and time.” Natacha Pincemaille-Neveu
untitled is about the human body as sculpture – embracing the idea of presence and absence. Sculptures are bodies. As a viewer, you project ‘life’ in the statues contextualising yourself and history. The work explores the notion of presence/absence in the contrast between the living/dancing/moving bodies and the standing/unliving sculptures, the presence/absence of life.
