Desire & Disgust (redux, 2015): #4


Kaitlyn Nissen’s work inherently questions notions of societal expectation. Her still life constructions, self-portraiture and video work all look toward our perception, and ask us to step back from preconceived notions, of beauty.

Turning her attention to kate, given her inherent dislike of what she stands for, Kaitlyn wanted to destroy and defile "the idea of kate".
The beauty of flowers, torn apart, with “nails in her coffin” all come together subtlety in Kaitlyn's work titled 'Funerary'.

Kaitlyn’s explorations can be seen at www.kaitlynnissen.com

Just like the SVA students ... Observe. Slow Down. Shoot. Submit.
