Elena Ketra. The body asks no permission

In brief

Elena Ketra uses sculpture, installation, performance and pop visual language to address gender, self-determination and the social construction of desire.

Immediate symbols open into a more rigorous political and emotional investigation.

A recognisable practice

Ketra’s work is recognisable not because it repeats one object, but because it consistently redirects familiar signs toward questions of autonomy and power.

Humour and accessibility do not soften the argument; they make the viewer enter it before defensive habits take over.

Before acquiring

Verify medium, dimensions, edition, certificate and the relationship between the work and its original project. Performance-related objects may require additional documentation.
