"Working within a pop culture framework uniting music, visual culture, and art into one praxis, multimedia artist Michaela Melian constructs an oeuvre both haptic and conceptual out of everyday materials. ""Soft"" or ""fluid"" images, whose formal principles one might call Claes Oldenburgian, are combined with current critical methods of site-specific and context analysis to subvert perceived readings of objects, symbols, and history. In this thorough survey, Melian's drawings, sculptural objects and installations are unveiled helping the reader understand her focus on themes relating to the construction of gender characteristics and identity."Silvia Eiblmayr is the author of 'Triangel (English and German Edition)' with ISBN 9780972680622 and ISBN 0972680624.
