Included in this exhibition are five new performances captured in photography and video, along with leather, aluminum, glass and neon sculptures. LaFleur&#8217;s work often originates with the artist creating extensions of the body as props for performances to exploit how history, language, and expectations work to etch identity into (or out of) one&#8217;s existence. For GREENER PASTURES, LaFleur confronts the biological, historical, and political ideologies of the cowgirl to outline a new conceptual territory surrounding sensuality, the feminist body, and the South.&#8217; &#8211; Women &#038; Their Work Gallery<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/LissLaFleur.jpg\" alt=\"Coppyright the videomaker\" width=\"750\" height=\"391\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-20712\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/LissLaFleur.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/LissLaFleur-300x156.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/LissLaFleur-600x313.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/LissLaFleur-700x365.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.femininemoments.dk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/LissLaFleur-332x173.jpg 332w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><br \/>\n<em>Liss LaFleur.
