  • MONICA BONVICINI

  • Over the past thirty years, Monica Bonvicini has explored the political intersections of gender, power, and space. Through her large scale installations and public commissions, she draws attention to the ways our bodies are surveilled and manipulated within built environments. Bonvicini often incorporates text into her work, isolating bold and evocative statements from literature, poetry, and song lyrics. Reflective surfaces often appear creating a subversive and sensual invitation to look twice at our surroundings, and our positions within them. Amplified by their scale, Bonvicini’s site-specific interventions reimagine the urban landscape as a fertile site for critique and play.
