Her first bone series was six collages entitled \u201eBody or Soul\u201c. Not all use human This way of mixing human remains with faces and poetry seems a fairly bold exploration of the relationship between body and soul. \u201eThey are separate and connected, like black and white,\u201c Nukke explained.<\/p>\n Her second series, while it uses photos of bones rather than the real thing, might be even spookier. These works, entitled \u201eUrbanid\u201c or \u201eUrban Animals\u201c are photoshopped and digiprinted manipulations combining human skeletons with animal elements.<\/p>\n Steve Roman According to Mari Sobolev, Mall Nukke is making bone art.<\/p>\n Mall Nukke, who has already carefully converted today\u2019s overly media focused everyday world into religious trimmings, now finally sets to work on reliquaries. While icons are simple representations of a religious idea, reliquaries are much more tangible. So what, if most of them are fakes. Even a fake thing is more than an image.<\/p>\n Nukke doesn\u2019t mess with pieces of the true cross or sweaty cloths, no; she goes straight for the bones. Sacred bones are without doubt one of the earliest forms of body art, and throughout history they have been one of the most influential, both emotionally and in terms of popularity.<\/p>\n Eesti Ekspress, Areen, 2002, 5 September<\/p>\n Mall Nukke, with her exhibition \u201eUrban\u201c has, if not in content then definitely geographically, come full circle.<\/p>\n A couple of years ago she brought the first part of the \u201eUrbanite\u201c exhibition to P\u00e4rnu and now she is showing the third at the Endla Theatre Gallery.<\/p>\n Though the exhibition bears the title \u201eUrbans III\u201c, the number is a hint that these are new works and not previously unseen pictures. \u201eUrbans\u201c, \u201eUrbans I\u201c and \u201eUrbans III\u201c are all one exhibition that has been completed in stages because it has been an enormous project.<\/p>\n The second part didn\u2019t reach P\u00e4rnu, but was only shown in Tallinn. This third chapter comprising ten large works will remain here in P\u00e4rnu until the first weekend of August.<\/p>\n Since all the \u201eUrbans\u201c form one complete whole there is no point in speaking of any development, and this is confirmed by Nukke.<\/p>\n \u201eIt is fairly expensive to produce one large exhibition so I continue working on the same exhibition until the body of work that I had planned in the beginning was complete. It will take another two or three years,\u201c said Nukke.<\/p>\n In Estonian, there is no corresponding word for \u201curban\u201d, the title of the exhibition, but in English the adjective \u201curban\u201d denotes something related to the city. Nukke took this word into use in Estonian, and in the way that Hellenic refers to a Greek person; an urban is a city person.<\/p>\n According to Nukke\u2019s explanation, an urban is someone who has become distanced from nature and is surrounded by a built environment of his own creation. With the \u201eUrbans\u201c exhibition, the artist is fantasizing about where the urban could end up and ever so slightly moves into the realm of science fiction with new creatures and species that develop in this city.<\/p>\n Kaupo Meiel, A young artist represents a mankind that has become separated from the soil by asphalt in the manner of pop art or cold hyperrealism. In Nukke\u2019s work there is passion and a personal touch. She is not ashamed to attach her own personal concepts and visions to the people she portrays.<\/p>\n Nukke has managed to retain a pubescent interest in the mystical, and her work has a certain gothic(rock) tone and utilises its visual language, but as a trained artist in early middle-age she makes it much more complex. She achieves a magical, even \u201cold fashioned\u201d sense of colour with a special technique of her own, and not just by smearing black over the work.<\/p>\n In Nukke\u2019s pictures, the symbolic skull, that has travelled from religious art into heavy metal iconography, has turned into monster skeletons that immediately recreate a link with the science fiction hybrid mutants in the future world of David Cronenberg\u2019s \u201eeXistenZ\u201c.<\/p>\n Mall Nukke\u2019s image of the world is no doubt influenced by science fiction films, role games, popular science and other alternatives that today\u2019s world of glamour offers us instead of religion.<\/p>\n Siram, art critic [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_padding=”|20px|0px|20px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ module_class=”pa-inline-buttons” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_css_main_element=” display: flex;|| justify-content: space-between;” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/www.mallnukke.ee\/en\/2006-2007-the-prospects\/” button_text=”PREVIOUS” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”14px” button_text_color=”#000000″ button_border_width=”0px” button_font=”|700|||||||” button_icon=”#||divi||400″ button_icon_placement=”left” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/www.mallnukke.ee\/en\/2000-2004-icons\/” button_text=”NEXT” button_alignment=”right” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”14px” button_text_color=”#000000″ button_border_width=”0px” button_font=”|700|||||||” button_icon=”$||divi||400″ custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u201eUrbans\u201c2003\u20132005Human bones find new lease on life in art \u2026According to Nukke, it was working with the ideas of fantasy and religion, specifically icons and relics, that led to her interest in bones about two years ago.
