‘Love hotel’ is a multi-media installation that was rebuild after a capsule hotel in Tokyo as a metaphor for the female body. With the statement ‘My body is a hotel, my body is not a hotel’ I tried to deal with ownership over my own body, addressing issues of feminism, sexuality, and memory by explicitly giving viewers permission to enter the most private of spaces.
