Pay Here is a photobook investigating gender politics and especially the female identity and sexuality, aiming for a reflexion on gender role issues and versatility of the female identity. It explores the power of gender and its dominance throughout the artist’s experience, often making use of prejudices, preconceptions and clichés in order to examine and break them down. Pay Here represents the feelings of horror, disgust, envy, hunger and absurdity related to the gender politics. This photobook consists of individual photographic prints glued onto each page.
