![Woah by Jeanine Woollard…
[You take] classic images and historical paintings and place [yourself] within them, often nude, reimagining the scenes and the role of women. Your work is full of female figures, but very few male. Are you celebrating the tradition of the female nude, or is this a critical, feminist dialogue you are trying to create?In my earlier work there are plenty of men! But with this work, it’s only natural that I am the subject of the work, since it’s my adventure, in my context. Obviously the works also evoke the historical female nude.
How do you approach the documentation of your installations? Is the final piece simply a photograph or is that just a necessary means of preserving it?When the work features a subject, be that me or others, it has been necessary to take a photograph of that moment, because it can’t last for long. I also make sculpture that exists on it own terms and doesn’t need documentation. I like to play with both. (via)](http://29.media.tumblr.com/eEpoSv5pDo8kjp3xEXRi5uzDo1_500.jpg)
