Elena Kovylina is an influential Moscow and Paris-based artist whose confrontational and visceral social critiques performances explore the political significance of a woman’s experience in Russia today. Elena’s performances are interactive spectacles in which all members of the audience participate. She takes on roles of author, aggressor, and object of desire. The artists work has included - a boxing ring in which everyone battled one another; a tea party where the table was set alight; a new waltz where the artist danced to exhaustion and a stool which everyone was invited to knock from under her feet. |
