Natasja Mabesoone's Art Style
Natasja Mabesoone creates graphic works using a combination of the seventeenth-century 'vernis mou' printing technique, monotypes, and drawings. She incorporates stencils, markers, and glitter to blend the aesthetics of decoration and craft. Mabesoone's associative and poetic visual language reflects themes of sensuality, sexuality, powerlessness, and aggressiveness.
Her work explores notions of femininity, the subversiveness of the cute, and domesticity as a potential form of resistance.
