Chantal Spapens, a French/Dutch visual artist, channels her creative expression through performance and sculpture/installation. She studied for her MFA at the Rome University of Fine Arts (RUFA).
Chantal's artistic narrative unfolds at the intersection of personal experience and societal inquiries, exploring the multifaceted nature of womanhood within the backdrop of a contemporary, capitalist, patriarchal society. Her body of work intricately weaves themes of female agency, body politics, and power relations, delving into the complex layers that define the feminine experience. Through a nuanced lens, Chantal invites viewers to contemplate and engage with the intricate dance between individual stories and broader societal questions in her quest to unravel the essence of womanhood in the contemporary world.
Chantal will participate in RAW with 2 performance-based videos showing at the exhibition “Acqua: di vita - di conflitto” curated by Gianleonardo Latini for the MAGIS Foundation.
