ARTEMIS I-II 1995

Artemis I-II were part of project “Ephesus: The imagination of History”. The double-headed self-portrait is a metaphor
for Artemis, the ancient Goddess of Ephesus.
It consists of two site-specific installations.

Artemis I is a handmade banner placed in
front of the Great Theater on the marble road leading to the lower and main
entrance of the ancient city Ephesus.
The double-headed portrait appears on one side and 90 names attributed
to Artemis signed by 90 anonymous women appear on the other side.
