Dom Joannah

Set against the seductive backdrop of Soho, London, Dom Joannah’s re-imagining of the legend of Dom Juan unfolds as a vibrant tapestry of collage and animation. This exploration serves as a subversive, pro-feminist discourse on modern love, seamlessly intertwining themes of intimacy, power, and desire.

Through an experimental lens, Dom Joannah crafts a queer narrative that both celebrates and critiques the rituals of romance. The work’s playful yet incisive nature invites the audience to reflect on the complexities of relationships in contemporary society. The animations pulsate with urgency and wit, capturing the fleeting moments of connection and the often absurd dance of attraction.

Each collage serves as a visual commentary, merging various mediums to create a rich tapestry that questions societal norms surrounding love and intimacy. With a tongue-in-cheek edge, the work challenges traditional power dynamics, offering a fresh perspective that invites viewers to engage with the nuances of modern relationships.

In this evocative exploration, Dom Joannah redefines what it means to be a modern lover and reclaims the narrative of desire—rendering it an inclusive space where all identities can find resonance and meaning. This innovative exhibition promises to leave an indelible mark on the dialogue surrounding love in the 21st century, embodying the spirit of Soho as a hub of creativity and transformation.
