Objectified Outline (2024), a leporello by Dóra Maurer, one of Hungary’s most influential artists, features eight silver prints depicting chalk-painted outlines on a rotating woman's body.
This leporello explores the abstract representation of femininity and the perception of the female body. It emphasizes Maurer's unique perspective on these themes, capturing the fluidity and transformation of the figure through the dynamic movement of the body.
The work references her early conceptual piece from 1981, also titled Objectified Outline, which similarly delves into the perception of the female body and its abstract form, presenting it as a subject of both artistic and social inquiry.
