Cajsa von Zeipel
Full CV (PDF)
Cajsa von Zeipel delves into identity, gender and queerness while interrogating ideals of classicism through sculpture. Culling from sci-fi and fantasy aesthetics, she constructs her figures in brightly colored silicone and adorns them with dollar store accouterment turned glistening treasure. In a resolute assertion of femme visibility and sex-positive provocation, these beings celebrate a world of their own creation.
