the origin of the florist / 2015
Inspired by Gustave Courbet's "L'origine du monde", an 1866 painting that gave birth to many controversies in its time, Djamo's object manages to subversively debate femininity and a woman's right to express herself and present her body in a rather patriarchal and conservative society.
Crafted in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, out of a piece of palm tree. Shaped by the artist and then later painted with his blood and Crimson acrylic.
