EXPORT, a feminist artist known for her body-political performances in 1970s Europe, creates a powerful installation in which 25 video monitors stand like columns in a dark space, each showing a sewing needle plunging downward. This intense work dramatically expresses the artist’s view of how media literally surrounds our environment and penetrates our bodies.
