Artist: Francesca Woodman https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/89/Francesca_Woodman_self_portrait.jpg/220px-Francesca_Woodman_self_portrait.jpg Francesca Woodman was born in Colorado, USA in 1958. In her photography, she captured many female images in the room and beside the walls. The bodies of these women are hazy and dreamy like fog, which makes people feel... It is difficult to see clearly the relationship between the female image and the space in the photography, but she creates poetic works that use camouflage and changes in light and shadow, and also show a fascinating image. The body, space, and buildings seem to merge together, presenting a It creates a kind of poetic intoxication that fascinates people. Woodman was born in Denver in 1958. Her father is a painter and her mother is a ceramic artist. Growing up in an artistic family, she has been very interested in photography since she was a child. She likes to take black and white photography and published her first work at the age of 13. . She received professional training at the Rhode Island School of Design between 1975 and 1979, during which she went to Rome for a year of honors studies. After graduation, she came to New York to pursue an art career. During her college years and in New York, Woodman held many solo and group exhibitions. Within a month after publishing the photo album "Some di ordered interior geometries" (some di ordered interior geometries) in 1981, she moved from New York's East Village to He jumped to his death from the building where he lived. He was only 22 years old. Woodman approaches his photography as if it were photos from a diary. Like other artists, she used the diary as a practice manual and as a rehearsal space to respond to her photographic works. Therefore, although Woodman could not first calculate the intensity of outdoor light or the chaotic imagination of the space, Most of her works are planned in advance, and her work diary is like a complex space that can compose music for the future, connecting the past, present and future together. Photography is Woodman's creative medium, and photography is actually the most suitable medium for facing death, loss and grief. It can show traces that once existed but are no longer there. Therefore, Woodman's photographic works are like Like a diary, it shows people a way to see her, or how she sees herself. Her images show the traces that can continue to exist after she disappears from the world of appearance. They are full of unique charm and profound meaning, and also provide Death leaves mysterious and intriguing clues. Woodman's desire to return to "the semiotic chora" indeed inspired her to create photographs haunted by the desire for death. An untitled self-portrait she took in New York a year before her suicide can be representative. In the photo, Woodman is lying in a bathtub. The white bathtub, the checkered marks on the floor and the stains of Cement pipes on the wall create a kind of The meaning of death is inexplicable and terrifying. Woodman left behind a series of photographic works, which preserved the complete trajectory and showed a traceable context. For her, there is actually no relationship between the initial gesture when taking the photo and the final result printed by the photo. There is no difference. Flowing in the variation of self-creation and self-termination, Woodman pursues the return of the matrix through active planning and photography, using disguise and spatial fusion, and even "disappearance" and fusion of boundaries. The state changes the angle at which women are gazed in the image, showing Woodman's emphasis on the discovery and interpretation of women's body consciousness. Wood's longing for the feminine space is mixed with the temptation of self-destruction. In this world, boundaries collapse and melt, leaving only traces of death and chaos. The works she left in the last few years convey Metaphors of death, redemption, and rebirth express the implicit yet hopeful belief in longing for the realization of liberation. In the late 1960s, feminist artists created extremely colorful and challenging art, which has become one of the most important schools in contemporary art history. In the 1960s and 1970s, Western feminism represented by the United States Art enables women to re-face the reality of their bodies and destroys the traditional impression of "beauty". Woodman once said: "I am interested in the relationship between people and space.". In her short photography career, she took a total of more than 500 works, most of which were self-portraits. She focused on the performance of the body, showing women's active exploration of body representation, and her understanding of the logical relationship between time and space. He is particularly interested in and reveals touching aesthetic achievements in his works. Woodman’s body art works that explore self-representation coincide with the development of feminist body art since the 1960s. On this basis, let’s further introduce Her self-portrait photography works related to space and body dressing.
