This small icon is a work that has been created over the years by collecting one found object after another. A work that is very close to my heart.
Icon “sweet love”, Size approx. 17 x 26 cm
Material – found objects: Painted waste wood, flattened cartridge case as a crown, stamped stamp “Sistine Madonna”, Frame made from birth control pill packaging filled with chocolate paper,
Crushed Astra Rotlicht brand bottle cap, Remains of a child’s plait, labeled paper.
Becoming a mother, being a mother. Madonna between adoration and desire, power and dependence, kitsch and sublimity, sugar-sweet and bitter.
