The project by Nathalie Djurberg, which has been specifically designed for the Prada Foundation's location, consists of models of parts of the human body that become pavilions inside which the videos of the renowned Swedish artist are projected. The exhibition hall is turned into the inside of the human body and the videos represent visceral compelling desires and possessive sexual thoughts. Djurberg's videos are short animations made using Stop Motion techniques where small plasticine figures create surreal atmospheres and, often, grotesque stories. The staging of these stories is rudimentary but ingenious, infusing an ambiguous sense of anxiety and unease through their sexual reflections, with references to violence, the macabre, gruesome, and subtle pleasure of cruelty and perversion.
