Joyce Overheul: let's get political

By

Abstract

Joyce Overheul's work is about inequality, sexism, feminism, power relations and emancipation. No romantic l'art pour l'art for this activist artist. She does work in soft colours, textiles and beads. That cuddliness and humor make it easy to succumb to her art, until you are hit by her sharp, piercing observations. The work of Joyce Overheul is a call to the individual to speak up, to shake off conventions and oppression. For Joyce Overheul, Let's Get Political is not necessarily about showing your colours, but above all about alert, combative people who critically question and undermine the ruling power--Back of cover.
