03: Natalie Seifert Eliassen / Participatory Breast Sculpture


Listen Later

I talk to Natalie Seifert Eliassen in the Kuva/Tila gallery of the Fine Arts Academy of Helsinki, where she has built her Breastfall: a waterfall constructed by sculptures of breasts, made from casts of volunteered audience bodies during the exhibition period. We discuss body image issues, nudity in art and society, and how it might be possible to reclaim your body and sexuality and set your breasts free, so to say. Natalie also explains about her process working with other bodies, and how she treats this sensitive area of people exposing themselves and becoming her material.
