The photographic sequence is the first in which she stages her own female body as the subject of her art—a key juncture in feminist art’s struggle for women’s self-determination and control over their identities. The result is a poignant expression of what it feels like to be at the mercy of an oppressive power. In framing the performing human body as a temporary sculpture, Pilz anticipates the principal idea of an expanded conception of sculpture that will later be developed by Erwin Wurm and others.Photography1020350286085https://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/apis/iiif/presentation/v2/1-objects-86085/manifest
