REBECCA FONTAINE-WOLF
ArtDog London has 5 new mixed media and digital artworks available from London artist Rebecca Fontaine-Wolf. Rebecca has been stuck in Lisbon during the Corona Crisis, here is her story:
"This CoVid-19 Lockdown has been quite challenging, as it has no doubt been for all of us. After coming to Lisbon for my first solo show here in March, I was due to start a 2 month residency. The show was closed early and the residency cancelled. I have now found myself alone in an airbnb in Lisbon, where I will stay until June".
"Thankfully, I have enough space here to have been able to create a make-shift studio in my flat by moving furniture around and was also still able to order materials online. Due to the nature of being in an airbnb I can’t create using my normal working methods and have had to adapt my practice to this new situation".
"The current crisis and the very isolated state I find myself in have also impacted the subject matter of the work I’ve been creating. A new direction which will lead towards a full body of work eventually has begun to emerge. I've turned in on myself, and in this act of self reflection I have once again become the model, and subject of my own work. The main focus is on themes around isolation, self-reflection, the strange sense of self-othering which occurs when every interaction you have with other people is mediated by a screen in which you can see yourself reflected back at you".
