Chelsea Culprit

In the framwork of the exhibition Trece Lunas, Plataforma presents a talk with artist Chelsea Culprit.

Trece lunas by Chelsea Culprit (Paducah, USA, 1984) is an exhibition of sculptures and paintings that proposes an alternative feminist cosmology, where archaeological forms, mystical figures, and archetypes of the collective unconscious are reconfigured as contemporary manifestations of liberation and bodily autonomy. Inspired by lunar cycles, archaic goddesses, and domestic rituals, Culprit builds her own mythology from the bodies that sustain everyday life: dancers, waitresses, caregivers, mothers. Their bodies —fractured and subsequently reassembled— transcend the individual narrative to form a constellation of goddesses that invoke other ways of living that are free and plural.
