Tamara Kostianovsky
ACTUS REUS
| In her solo debut exhibition, Tamara
Kostianovsky extends the cold human gaze to killing.
Methodically dissected beef carcasses made out of
discarded human clothes are both ethically and aesthetically
disturbing. The intense reality of the opened body
cannot stop the humans from looking at the killed
animal. The looker is not the killer, and some of
the power in the relationship therefore lies with
the looked-at thing, dead though it is. more |
