This publication takes part of the Fondation Thalie’s collection of exhibition booklets. It is published on the occasion of Jenne Vicerial & Leslie Moquin’s exhibition, Persephone, from 3 July to 16 September 2023.
The exhibition unveils, in an unprecedented way, Leslie Moquin’s photographs documenting the clothing compositions that Jeanne Vicerial produced during confinement while a resident of the Académie de France in Rome-Villa Medici (2019-2020).In tandem, the exhibition showcases several clothing sculptures from the series of “Open Venuses”. Made with flowers from the gardens of the Villa Medici, they are a reinterpretation of Clemente Susini’s Venerina, an emblematic piece in the history of anatomical representation.
