The three books Voilée, Non Amour and White wedding are a result of a reflection on the veil and the book medium.
The veil, a fragile and delicate fabric is also an object heavily charged with meaning and symbolic (Islamic veil). It is a powerful boundary, the point of separation between a woman and a man, the private and public, religions, worlds…
By turning transparent pages made of delicate and thin fabric a tear appears.
The book Non Amour is about rape. We enter progressively into a violent act by manipulating the substance.
400 x 200 mm / 45 pages / white gauze / embroidery
The book makes part of the permanent collection of artist’s books in CLA – Artists book collection, Brussels, Belgium.
