In ihrem Drang zur Entgrenzung zerlegt Mithu Sen jedoch nicht nur die Sprache in ihre Bestandteile, um sie dann immer wieder neu zusammenzusetzen. Der Ort ihrer Reflexion ist der K\u00f6rper. In ihren Bildern, Zeichnungen, Skulpturen und Installationen \u00fcberlagern sich weibliche und m\u00e4nnliche Geschlechtsmerkmale, Blumen, Fr\u00fcchte, menschliche und tierische Elemente zu bizarr schockierenden Hybriden. Universalien menschlicher und tierischer Existenz, wie Haare, Knochen oder Z\u00e4hne, stellen nicht nur etablierte Hierarchien und Grenzen zwischen Geschlechtern infrage, sondern auch zwischen Ethnien, Kasten und Spezies. Mit der Radikalit\u00e4t ihrer Bildsprache bricht sie lautstark Tabus. Ihr Aufl\u00f6sungswille reicht bis hin zur Institutionskritik. So schaffte sie mit ihrem <em>Museum of Unbelongings<\/em> (2018) die Idee eines demokratischen Museums der marginalisierten Dinge, das ohne Labels und Hierarchien auskommt. Alle Gegenst\u00e4nde haben den gleichen Wert \u2013 eine Metapher f\u00fcr eine egalit\u00e4re, grenzenlose Welt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mithu Sen (*1971) ist eine der K\u00fcnstlerinnen, die das Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg bei der Ausstellung Facing India pr\u00e4sentiert hat.
