Fakewhale Solo Series presents In Your Car by Sasha Katz
On Wednesday, September 11th, Fakewhale proudly presents “In Your Car”, a Fakewhale Solo Series release by Sasha Katz.
Set within the fleeting intimacy of an unnamed lover’s car, “In your car” offers a voyeuristic glimpse into the brief, charged encounters that define Katz’s “Erotic Diaries” series. This work explores the unpredictable interplay of love and desire, capturing the essence of momentary passions with an immediacy that mirrors the transience of the encounters themselves.
In Your Car: Intimate Landscapes of Connection and Desire
Sasha Katz, born in 1984, is a visual artist based in Athens, Greece. After completing her studies in Illustration at the British Higher School of Arts and Design, she has focused her artistic pursuits on the exploration of female sensuality and the poetic expression of the body.
Through her work, Katz challenges traditional beauty norms and expresses a deep reverence for women, redefining conventional aesthetics. Her pieces have been exhibited globally at prestigious venues such as PanAmerican Art Projects, pal project, Francisco Carolinum Linz, DecentralArt Pavilion, and Nox G. Additionally, her work has garnered attention in renowned publications like Kunstforum, It’s Nice That, I-D, Juxtapoz, and Vogue Italia.
“In your car”, a component of her broader “Erotic Diaries” series, captures thirty minutes inside a stranger’s car – a space as confined as it is expansive in potential. Here, Katz distills raw human emotions to their most potent: love and desire, fleeting yet intense. These moments, brief as they may be, are rendered timeless.
A sense of authenticity permeates the pieces, turning the ephemeral into the eternal. A mundane moment is not only captured, but elevated, transforming a simple car ride into a profound journey through the landscapes of human connection.
Katz’s artistic process – marked by a careful balance of revelation and concealment – mirrors the dynamics of her encounters. Each piece in the series acts as a discrete narrative, a standalone moment of connection that is both complete in itself and suggestive of a larger collection of stories.
Her own words, “Thirty minutes in the car of an anonymous lover whose name I never learned,” encapsulates the essence of this series. They underscore the spontaneity and mystery central to Katz’s work, each piece a window into a moment that is deeply personal yet universally resonant.
In a world where moments pass us by, Sasha Katz captures them, holds them up to the light, and invites us to see the beautiful details that might otherwise fade into the rearview mirror.
