Nanna Starck
Nanna Starck’s sculptural artistic practice is centred around the relief with a focus on the grotesque body, the abject, gender and sexuality. Starck’s work with the sculptural body as a political tool uses boundary-pushing scenarios to address topics like alienation of the body in society, feminism and body positivity.
Her practice has roots in Viennese Actionism, with its border-crossing performances, and reliefs from Antiquity, with their significance as pictorial narratives offering a platform to process emotions.
The merge between absurd bodily scenarios with everyday objects creates a tension in her works often evoking laughter and disgust, as she exposes the tabooed body and shows its bodily holes for everyone to see.
