Gender Entrapment and Performative Mythologies (ANNA PERACH)

Guest artist ANNA PERACH  joins ELIZABETH FULLERTON to discuss her work via 'The Victorian Chaise Longue' 1953 by Marghanita Laski. The novel describes the experience of a charming yet childish lawyer's wife who wakes up in the body of her alter-ego eighty years previously. It's a chilling tale of entrapment, which closely links to Anna's sculptural work as she reacts to female stereotypes, trapped in their societal roles, trapped in her tufted wool costumes.    ANNA PERACH annaperach.com instagram anna_perach   EXHIBITIONS 2022 Summer group show at Hales Gallery  2022 'Eye of the Collector' Cook Latham Gallery  24 Mar - 30 Apr 2022 'Spidora' Edel Assanti  2020 'Tomorrow London' White Cube 2020 'Seven Wives' graduation exhibition at Goldsmiths    ARTISTS Alice Neel  Anousha Payne Dorothea Tanning Leonora Carrington   BOOKS Clarissa Pinkola Estes 'Women who Run with the Wolves' Barbara Creed 'The Monstrous Feminine' Griselda Pollock 'After affects After Images'  Frederico Campanja 'Technic and Magic'   GALLERIES & ORGANISATIONS ADA Gallery, Rome Arco, Madrid ADA, Milan Cook Latham Gallery Goldsmiths College Ingram Art Prize Mother Art Prize Ryder Gallery
