Stasi Prison: Fecundity and death, care and violence are set against each other to create a psychic tension within Lucy Palustris, the artist’s alter-ego. The work probes issues of the Anthropocene while creeping into the physiological landscape of the persona. Lucy, a solitary woman, manifests a conflicted relationship with the living world. Is she an agency of care, a de-stabilizing force, or a menacing presence?  Filming: Stasi Prison with Isabelle Duchêne, © Isabelle Duchêne
