Noms Inconnus
Noms Inconnus is a work developed between 2017 and 2021 that engage with structural feminicide. Through text, image, and expansive installation, Zoé Aubry exposes the societal dimension of intimate partner violence, challenges its trivialization in the media, and restores identity and history to the victims. In Noms Inconnus, she physically intervenes in the images that depict the perverse system sustaining this oppression—using tools similar to those employed by the perpetrators themselves. Her works demand both physical and moral engagement and point to the global, intersectional reality of gender-based violence. Everything happens outside the image.
