These larger-than-life cut-out photographs come from a collection of images that were taken of Eleye’s own behind. They show bruises and scratches that were caused by everyday accidents like falling and stumbling, or while making love.
Deze meer dan levensgrote uitgesneden foto’s komen uit een verzameling foto’s van Eleye’s achterste. De foto’s laten blauwe plekken en krassen zien die werden veroorzaakt door sex of alledaagse ongelukjes, zoals vallen en stoten.

Swearword signs
This series of wall sculptures are inspired by the typical swearwords often expressed by Eleye’s father. These works portray the way of cursing that is typical for the region where her family lives and can also be considered as the portait of her father. The works remind of practical self-made signs often used for houses, bars or boats. The works are made out of domestic scrap-wood from renovated interiors that show signs of a deconstructed past.
Deze serie wandborden is geïnspireerd op de typische scheldwoorden van haar vader. Hier wordt zowel de manier van vloeken geportretteerd die typisch is voor de regio waar Eleye vandaan komt als de manier waarop haar vader scheldt. Het werk herinnert aan de knutselachtige doe-het-zelf naamborden die vaak aan huizen, boten of in café’s hangen. Ze zijn gemaakt van resthout, afkomstig uit gerenoveerde huizen die sporen uit het verleden tonen.
