Null Island’s (Self-)Portraits Series is concerned with the psychology of the artist’s body and critically questions the possibilities and limitations of figuration and self-promotion. Stimulated by existential queries and investigations into what-ifs, the complex yet playful constant and manifold re-stagings of Null Island’s personas is characterised by allusion, where focal points are teasingly hidden, and different meanings are subtly implied. This series reflects 00Islands interest in the dialectics of self-awareness and the barriers to understanding. [00Island Zürich, Ongoing]
