Linda Stauffer works across media to dissolve the binary segregation of sexes and normative gender roles. In a playful manner different techniques and formats such as wood-carving, welding, video, puppetry and games are combined with fictional and humoristic narratives, and situations.
In this subversive play, a utopian story called “Misrepresentations” advocates for a more agender thinking. Touching upon critical notions in feminism such as gender politics in sports and the mystification of the female anatomy, the characters of this alter-world appear in form of marionette puppets. The dimension-spectrum of props and sculptural objects are blurring fictions and realities.
