Bride

The image Bride also belongs to the series Cono Sur. It was taken in the Salar de Uyuni, the largest salt desert in the world with around 10,000 km2. Here the artist presents herself in a blood-red wedding dress, the color of which spreads out in the water of the fooded, seemingly endless, surreal landscape. There is an exploration of the myth of marriage in all its dichotomies - from a festive ceremony to an economic act, from fertility to transience. The red colored white dress expresses the existential aspects of femininity and corporeality, of creation and fertility, of guilt and suffering. For example, a high percentage of marriages worldwide involve physical violence. Marcin, however, is less a victim than a demonstrator.
