Eugenie Boon is a multidisciplinary artist whose work reflects on her upbringing in Curacao and the island's historical relationship with the Netherlands. The artist explores the subtleties of daily life encounters, which often reveal aspects of duality. This duality manifests itself especially in themes such as religion, social constructs around gender, and colonialism. Her artistic practice combines storytelling and commentary, which are translated into performances, installations, paintings and sculptures. Boon's work questions cultural versus institutional structures in a shamanistic, playful, and poetic yet critical way, challenging the viewer to recognize themselves and perhaps question their own position.
