(With, Among Other Things, a Hard Body)

"A series of four works of which only three are shown here, all in the format of a door. I bought the doors at DIY-shop Hubo. I made a mental striptease, starting from photographs my boyfriend at the time took of me in 1977. Each of these works is another interpretation of how you reveal yourself: half hidden behind a chink, doubled by a mirror, or open as a fan."
