Artist list

Elene Usdin, Benjamin Lignel
Elene Usdin (photographer) and Benjamin Lignel (designer) share a sustained interest in the body - variously supine or dolled up - and will exhibit the results of their most recent deliberations on the matter. The show will feature all sorts of bodies - rearranged by one, adorned by the other - put on display to plot a course between use and representation, gender and identity, desire and expectancy.
While Plan A is to dull your uncommonly sharp mind with beverage to better pry open your wallet, Plan B means to impress you with the authors’ creative outpourings, and show you stuff, for without you, it would all be quite meaningless. 
 

Remarks
