Step into the world of contemporary artist Pauline Curnier Jardin who challenges conventional norms and questions the stereotype of women with her unique blend of performance art, film, sculpture and installations.

About Pauline Curnier Jardin
Pauline Curnier Jardin is a contemporary artist who combines film, sculpture, installations and performance art to create visually overwhelming and thought-provoking art. A lot of her work depicts the role of women in mythology, history, folklore and cinema. Roles that were traditionally portrayed in a very stereotypical way; as saint, mother, witch or mystical creature. Through her work, she stands up for these women, and those who identify as women, who struggle with various forms of exclusion as well as structural and systemic violence. Her layered and often humorous installations allow for reflection on the complexity of gender and the representation of the female figure in our society.
