Helena Calmfors is an artist whose work is inspired by the archetype of the dominant woman - a role with which she identifies and yet gently subverts. This is her debut monograph.

Helena Calmfors is a New York-based artist and performer whose work is inspired by the archetype of the dominant woman. It is a role with which she identifies and yet gently subverts by introducing 'soft' elements such as flowers into the typically 'hard' aesthetic vocabulary of domination. Central to her work is the feminist belief in the right to own one's body; she also explores the theme of reclaiming identity through hierarchical power play. The act of creating intimate scenes and experiences is present in all aspects of her art, ranging from performance to watercolor paintings, and digital and Polaroid photography. She uses instant photography as a way of representing the ephemerality of performance and the fleeting intimacy of the dominant/submissive relationship. With an introduction by the Indian-American artist, Ankita Mishra, Forget Me Not is Calmfors' debut monograph.
