Marina Noskova (Shindenkova) is an audio-visual artist of a Chuvash origin based in Berlin, Germany. Working mainly with film in her practise she explores the roles of power through the idea of gender in contemporary film setup. Exposing and objectivising her own expirience through texts, motion and static pictures, she uses camera in as a mechanism of spectating having its own POV and attention towards the artist — the spectated.
The nature of a female social construct is built upon constant control, influence, following, spectating. Women’s bodies and minds are being controlled and infliuenced by an outside force that exists in their own heads as well as in the others. In her practice Marina gives up towards the influence, adresses to it and documents the process.
