註釋Sonja Yakovleva' s (b. Potsdam, 1989; lives and works in Frankfurt am Main) silhouettes are informed by her sex-positive feminist views. They mix and match pornography with art-historical references, folkloristic motifs, fairy tales, and myths that have served to ingrain misogynistic, racist, and homophobic ideologies in the collective consciousness since the Middle Ages. The dissemination of such materials was facilitated by the paper cut, a medium that encouraged simplified graphical representations and was seen as domestic and appropriate for women. Yakovleva' s intentions in adopting it, however, are contrarian: her iridescent silhouettes grapple with women' s stories, precarious gray areas, power relations, representation, sexuality, and violence in novel ways.
