"You are all over me" is a project that challenges the heteronormative gaze while constructing new kinships between humans and non-humans.
It is an act of self-emancipation for the artist who feels the need to document hər body in a cathartic moment of coexistence with his work. The Guman, hybrids inspired by Donna Haraway.
In these shots Caterina wants to produce images that invoke fluidity and challenge queerphobic and homophobic stereotypes and the stigmas of body shaming.
These shots are the beginning of an artistic and photographic project that wants to be visible to every kind of person or creature, for those who are part of the LGBTQIA (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Intersex, Agender, Asexual) community and not, telling them "you are not alone, realize your value".
The use of chalk symbolises pollination and the Guman's ability to fertilise themselves is more than a conscious choice: the artist reflects on the destruction of the male-female pair and criticises the heteronormative approach to procreation.
"I want to contribute a library of images between human beings and human-non-human creatures, generating new non-patriarchal kinships; as if in that moment, in that imaginative environment, no prejudice or any anthropocentric conception of comity can be applied."
