Rafa艂 Milach: Reverse
Immersed in the extensive collection of books from Karl Lagerfeld's library 7L in Paris, Rafa艂 Milach works on the 'Reverse' collages in which he investigates the 鈥榮tandards of beauty鈥� and the way the body, mainly that of women, is perceived and represented.
Combining visual codes borrowed from art, media and science, Milach is critical of the recurring in the archives of Lagerfeld's library, and produced for the fashion industry, strict rigor of body representation. A creative approach allows the artist to undermine, distort, release and deconstruct this 'ideal.' His plastic, manual interventions in the form of collages as well as radical framing reverse the censorship, often significantly transforming very well-known works of art and pop culture images. Milach seems to emphasize that representation, even if creative, can be oppressive or cause unease.
Works premiered at the library 7L in the form of a zine (3 x 4 m). JEDNOSTKA Gallery will present original, unique collages made by Rafa艂 Milach in 2024.
