Scream is one in a series of artworks (prints, photographs, videos) by Janaina Tschäpe that engage with the image of a mermaid. In these works Tschäpe observes this extraordinary and mysterious creature, inspired by memories, myths and dreams, and investigates her anatomy, her femininity and her dual position of being both a subject and an object. In the current work, Tschäpe‘s mermaid is silently screaming underwater in a frame that moves onwards and backwards.
