Both a protest and a record, 'Gut Feeling' is an unflinching look at what it means to hold something or someone against their will, as well as at their request.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e— Amie Corry, AnOther Magazine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn June 2024, Rozhkova was arrested in Russia following a denunciation connected to a photoshoot, held in a pre-trial detention centre, and subsequently placed under house arrest. Confined for two months alongside thirteen women, she produced a body of work that responds to a cultural climate of enforced state control — one that stifles dissent and attempts to restrict artistic freedom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the centre of the work is the cage: a literal physical condition and a symbolic social order. Rozhkova turns to rabbits and rats confined to small enclosures to develop a stark visual language for incarceration. Human bodies — clashing, hysterical, held captive — are placed in direct relation to animals muzzled, tethered to milking machines, or slaughtered. The work draws on postindustrial factory farms, state institutions, and intimate human relationships as parallel and equally legible sites of control. Drawing on BDSM dialect and the slave-master relationship, Rozhkova interrogates the transformative potential of confinement, tracing the shifting positions between hunter and hunted, ruler and ruled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"I won't look away from my arrest, and I don't want others to look away as if it's something 'inconvenient'. I will cast a light on this violence, and show — without giving it a comfortable, consumable form — the unpleasant things I experienced myself.\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e— Kristina Rozhkova\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis title is part of the \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"\/collections\/photography-photobooks\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePhotobooks\u003c\/a\u003e collection at Lokator100.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Void","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54632205812058,"sku":"VOID-GUTFEELING-ROZHKOVA","price":60.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0946\/3359\/1130\/files\/gut-feeling-kristina-rozhkova-cover.jpg?v=1787596450","url":"https:\/\/lokator100.store\/products\/gut-feeling-kristina-rozhkova","provider":"Lokator100","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
