Vogt has worked with contact zones. In her paintings, image is not framed as a closed form, but as matter in suspension. It is in process, in a continuous flow of relation with the outside, the extra image and the bodies that perceive them. The disembodied heads of both people and animals, the bodies without a defined gender or with imprecise contours, are not mere formal elements: they are visual statements about the instability of identity, about the collapse of form as an instrument of recognition and classification. There is, therefore, a political movement in the refusal of visual normativity – the body, here, is not a place of identity, but of sensitivities and intensities.
