Isabella Chydenius: Three wise women

2021

The square shape is a repeated pattern in my work and represents the idea of “being square” / normative ideas that conform with current heteropatriarchal society. In order to challenge the norms, I work with light which immediately escapes the rigid dictated constructs of the square as light reflects and shines outside of the lines and shape. The drawn out area is also my examination of the discussed time-space of “safe(r) space” nightclubs from both a physical and theoretical aspect, viewing the dichotomy of the spaces as both limited and liminal.
