Beschreibung
Mathilde ter Heijne (*1969 in Strasbourg) deals with themes
such as the role of women in politically motivated suicides or the
representation of female victims of violence and war in the media. She often
uses a life-sized mannequin of herself as a stand-in actress in her videos and
her works on CD-ROM, and she also does the voice-overs for each of her alter
egos.
The
artist’s book 'If
It's Me, It's Not Me'
'presents
Mathilde ter Heijne’s working methods, concepts, and ideas of the last ten years
in her distinct handwriting. A “chronological archive of images” with a
selection of quotes and illustrations of her works is supplemented by excerpts
from literature and poetry, film and art-historical contributions, as well as
interviews conducted by the artist with experts in fields of central importance
for her recent work: woman’s role in society, suicide bombings, trauma therapy,
and matriarchy research.
