Jeanine Antoni




This lady is just straight up weird. WEIRD. But she is very talented and I respect her deeply. She has a meaning for each one of her pieces and I love that about her. My favorite piece is her giant rope, made of materials that belong to her loved ones. Her friends and family members donated articles of clothing and other stuff and she made it into a big rope and connected all of her pieces in one show together, using that rope. Its great. 
I also love that she teaches herself or is taught things she doesnt know how to do so that she can use them in her pieces. like when she taught herself how to tightrope and then went to her homeland and video taped herself "walking on the horizon" which was actually very very cool.
