winner of the 2014 andrè and marita nudelman award 
for visual arts, 3rd place


Nicole Dumas is an interdisciplinary artist and soccer referee who works with themes related to gender, the body and identity. Within this work she explores sports beyond the surface to look at the exchange of energy on a field of play in order to expand spaces between competition and connectivity. Through a collection symbols, structures and metaphors the sensational aspects of professional sports are usurped to draw attention to questions around ‘homosocial desires’, dynamics of touch, and the seeking of glory.
