Ozziline Mercedes is an interdisciplinary artist working with text, performance and digital image.
She works with her body as a primary investigative tool: transforming desire and lived experiences from within the sex industry into a research database that informs her practice.
Particularly interested in the intersection of [erotic] labour, fetish and pop + internet culture, her writing style combines fantasy narrative with gender theory, through a psychoanalytical & philosophical lens.
