Janine Antoni

Janine Antoni is a Bahamian-American conceptual artist renowned for her process-based works that explore the relationship between the body, desire, and everyday rituals. She gained international recognition for works like 'Gnaw' (1992), in which she carved into large blocks of chocolate and lard using only her teeth, and 'Loving Care' (1993), a performance in which she mopped a gallery floor with her hair dipped in hair dye. Antoni's multidisciplinary practice spans sculpture, performance, and photography, consistently blurring the boundaries between art-making and bodily experience.
