Statement
The work of Finn Theuws presents a visual language of personal memories and figure of speech. His work is based on the dynamic of his interpersonal relationships and the urgency to dissect the many aspects of ‘contemporary masculinity’.
He employs and reassigns materials and objects which speculate metaphorically (or even clichéd) on the different aspects and have a recognizable relation with the established properties of the masculine with a focus on a non-normative social orientation. His practice includes and combines both organic material, such as carnivorous plants personating hegemonic behavior, and artificial objects, like a medieval chainmail covering a massage mechanism speculating on the history of forbidden sodomy.
