#gernderperformance

Christoph reconstructed the gender performance, which he perceived in the novel “The Handmaid’s Tale” by Margret Atwood: He marked all elements describing the body and got rid of everything else, to capture the essence of the body perception. The reader experiences now solely body perceptions with which he inevitably identifies. In addition to the typographic work, Christoph scanned body parts which cannot be identified with a gender. Both, text and images, create discomfort.
