She started working from the concept of the car, omnipresent around the Billboard because of the proximate city ring and the surrounding parking space. Her large scale billboard revisited the relation between men and their cars.<\/p>\n<p>Aline Bouvy\u00a0created an image which is absurd \u2013 even clownish: two white males lie on top of obviously fake, toy-like cars, in a position better fit for a toddler than for a grown man. The men are curled up like fetuses, wearing pants nor shoes. Scattered around the cars are pieces of bread, shaped like bones and ribcages. This absurd advertisement seeks a place for itself into the evolution of the imagery of car-advertisements. These have shifted from an over-sexualized approach to a more environmental awareness. Performativity however &#8211; or a focus on how owning a specific car can shape our identity &#8211; has always remained at its core. It\u2019s this insistence on performativity that Bouvy wants to question, and oppose to the growing deficit in human performance \u2013 or how we seem to lose our ability to truly connect to one another.<\/p>\n<p>The edition Aline Bouvy made in relation to this billboard is a bas-relief in Jesmonite, fiber glass and natural wax, depicting a crudely made nude male figure draped across a car with a speech bubble repeating the words she hand-painted on the billboard &#8220;kaka, pipi, geld&#8221; (&#8220;piss, shit, money&#8221;).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jesmonite, fiber glass, natural wax<\/p>\n<p>55 \u00d7 44 \u00d7 4 cm<\/p>\n<p>Edition of 7 copies, signed and numbered by the artist on a certificate<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1756,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[15],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-3932","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-uncategorised","first","outofstock","sold-individually","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/artlead.net\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/3932","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/artlead.net\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/artlead.net\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artlead.net\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1756"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/artlead.net\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3932"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artlead.net\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=3932"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artlead.net\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=3932"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artlead.net\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=3932"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
