Matissa, one channel video, 09:40, 2013

The video is relating Matisses' famous painting "Harmoney in Red" from 1908. The female figure, the maid, is transforming from a passive and intimidating figure to an artist persona. She gets into the Matisses' "Big Shoes". She is destroying his well-known painting by using artistic means (-paper cutouts and painting). Meanwhile, she is forgetting that she is destroying her own world. The video piece is based on dialogues and contradictions between volume and flatness, Painting and Sculpture, "Real" and "Artistic".
