Description: Deeply fascinated with the freedom and playfulness expressed by Maja Malou Lyse, the photographer Petra Kleis (b.1983) has been documenting the artist, ten years her junior. Shot casually and sporadically over the course of three years, the series portrays the female model? artist Maja Malou Lyse? as a desired object and a desiring subject: dressing up, dressing down, or overtly reproducing classic motifs and archetypes of contemporary Western sexuality. Lyse is currently on view at the exhibition 'Art & Porn' at Kunsthal Charlottenborg. Entrance to the exhibition is free on the evening. 00"This dynamic duo cleverly comments on today?s porn culture0in knowing, non-judgmental ways.0Subtly hilarious, hence subversive.0Only loving, generous, wise women could make us feel this way.0Girlification is a masterful work of post-porn modernism.0Positively femmetastic!"0? Annie Sprinkle.
