FACES - photography http://faces-l.net/en/taxonomy/term/172/0 en Josely Carvalho http://faces-l.net/en/content/josely-carvalho <p>My individual work as an artist has developed within the structure of a visual diary - a journal, perhaps a journey. "Diary of Images", the name I have given to the body of my work, is an on-going process, a record of events, an exposé of cultural issues, a receptacle of personal and collective memories. From photo-silkscreen to video, from physical to digital, the body of my work in the last 30 years can be described as an open hybrid book. At present, I have added olfactory art as a new medium and its capacity to resurface emotions and individual/collective memories.</p> <p><a href="http://faces-l.net/en/content/josely-carvalho">read more</a></p> installation internet New York olfactory art photography printmaking Rio de Janeiro video Mon, 02 Jan 2012 18:53:21 +0000 Josely Carvalho 701 at http://faces-l.net quin http://faces-l.net/en/content/quin <p>I am interested in work that involves politics, gender and ethnic stereotypes, privilege, power, and science fiction/fantasy.

This has been my prefered creative platform for the last two years because of the possiblity to meet international artists and bring together most 2 and 3D mediums, like multi-media, sculpture and animation, in real time. </p> <p>I am interested in that which lays between, the area where binary codes and constructs collapse and cease to function. Gender bending and blending is in my experience the only area that truly confronts and breaks down all these codes.</p> Amsterdam animation cyberformance photography sculpture second life transgender Upstage virtual installation Sat, 31 Oct 2009 10:06:08 +0000 Marischka 470 at http://faces-l.net Maria Martinez-Cañas http://faces-l.net/en/node/368 <p>I was born in Havana, Cuba, grew up in Puerto Rico and live in the US since 1978.

My artwork frequently exists as site-specific performative events and seeks to stimulate dialogue between myself, participants, and the local community. My recent work explores the influences of rapid developments in wireless information technologies on performances and understandings of identity in the context of our social/political climate of surveillance and identity authentication. I received my MFA from the California Institute of the Arts (2000). My work has been presented internationally including exhibits in the United States, Mexico, Germany, The Netherlands, Japan and Thailand.</p> <p><a href="http://faces-l.net/en/content/nancy-d-nisbet">read more</a></p> Canada contemporary art Edmonton installation mobile media photography video Sat, 17 Jan 2009 12:51:28 +0000 nnisbet 271 at http://faces-l.net Evelin Stermitz http://faces-l.net/en/content/evelin-stermitz <p>Evelin Stermitz M.A., M.Phil.<br /> 1972 / Austria<br /> Working on media and new media art projects by using different media like photography, video and net, including installations and conceptual works.<br /> The focus of art work is on gender based female and socio-cultural topics. The issues of projects are about gender, role models and the gap between man and woman referring to the theory of Jacques Lacan in terms of "the Other" and the performativity of the body by Judith Butler. An important task is the female body and the outgoing connection to created symbolic meanings of gender in history and nowadays. A main emphasis is on performative works.</p> <p><a href="http://faces-l.net/en/content/evelin-stermitz">read more</a></p> Austria feminist art media and new media art media theory photography Slovenia Thu, 15 Jan 2009 10:03:59 +0000 Evelin 269 at http://faces-l.net Corinne Kruger http://faces-l.net/en/node/250 <p>Hi,</p> <p>I am Corinne and work as an artist at the moment.

She holds a Bachelor of Fine Art from the University of California, Irvine where she originally studied Biological Sciences. She received her Master of Fine Art in Sculpture from Mills College in Oakland, CA. Her conceptually driven work employs a variety of materials and processes that usually have a feminine sensibility about them. Unsettling scientific and medical imagery are foiled by more comfortable domestic imagery and craft processes. Likewise, the seemingly familiar and benign are subverted by the anatomical and biological. She often uses her own body in the production of materials for her work such as blood and discarded facial peel. She recently became a certified phlebotomist.</p> <p><a href="http://faces-l.net/en/node/231">read more</a></p> artist biomedical computer animation computerized machine embroidery conceptual digital imaging domesticated viscera domesticity drawing New York photography sculpture video Sat, 10 Jan 2009 16:04:13 +0000 Laura Splan 231 at http://faces-l.net Regina Célia Pinto http://faces-l.net/en/content/regina-c%C3%A9lia-pinto <p>Born in Rio de Janeiro, Regina Célia Pinto is a teacher, a researcher and an independent artist.
