Strange Bodies, Strange Nature: Corporeal and Environmental Artivism of Lenka Klodová and Zdena Kolečková.
Original language description
The article discusses how women artists who entered the Czech art scene after the collapse of communism in East Europe confront the traditional gender-based hierarchy of dualisms (culture/nature, mind/body etc.) and the patriarchal order while investigating nature and conceptualizing biology. It focuses mainly on the work by Zdena Kolečková and Lenka Klodová who freely follow the legacy of women’s engagement in environmental issues and (maternal) body politics in the era of late socialism. Although not explicitly activist, their projects that explore and employ natural or corporeal existence respectively have a subversive but also formative character. They treat nature, body and motherhood not in terms of naturalism or fixed essence but as a site of social and political inscription and – most importantly – production.
