immobile life
Recently, Kerstin Serz takes the genre of still life painting into the dimensions of the present.
A variety of sanguinary materials and juxtapositions are explored.

Mannsblut
In German the flower found in this still life is called "Mannsblut", which translates into "men's blood". Located in the predominately female-associated shell, this painting alludes to the inversions of traditional power structures and the significance of blood. The steak, a dish that can be described as more masculine, is suppressed by the shell who bears the flower. "Mannsblut" is a visual stacking of our preconceptions of gender-roles, and their arbitrariness .
