ARTIST INFO
About
Sevina Tzanou (b. 1994, Athens, Greece) collapses bodies, space, and time in her painting process. Through an engagement with Burlesque, drama, and drag communities she explores the subjectivity of the femme; a hyper- feminine performance which celebrates and annunciates the queer characteristics of femininity. Through a hyper-visualization of femininity, Sevina’s work, and notions of the femme, call attention to the very constructed nature of femininity and reclaim that construction with all its glossy, frilly, rich characteristics inherent in its deployment.
