Sculpture II by Kirsten Justesen, 1969

Sculpture II is very different from my more humorous works dealing with feminist battle issues, even though I also used my own body as a tool. Now my work is very often read as feminist statements. I use my own body since it is at hand. It happens to be a female body. My generation of artists was taught to look at art with a male gaze and we are still fighting that one-dimensional gaze. [ftp]
