This document is an image-essay by Benedetta Panisson, an artist and researcher, titled "Sexual exorbitance in island and sea scapes." Panisson explores the representation of human and animal sexualities in museums through a queer, feminist, and interdisciplinary lens. The essay aims to challenge heteronormative perspectives and promote acceptance and awareness of diverse sexualities. Panisson's work includes film photography, video installation, and live performance, and her long-term projects analyze the aesthetics of sexualities in island and ocean environments. The document also mentions specific projects, such as "Sea Fist" and "Sexual Display from the Abyss," which explore the sensual and sexual relations between the body and the sea. Panisson's research also examines the visual representation of sexualities among Indigenous insular people and questions the association of hostility with sexuality. The document includes images and captions from Panisson's projects, disrupting normative constructions of sensuality in waterscapes. The text provides a brief overview of Panisson's academic and artistic background, including their current PhD research at Durham University and previous degrees in History of Arts and Performing Arts. They have exhibited their work internationally and are represented by OPR Gallery in Milan, Italy. [Extracted from the article] |
