Sandra Jõgeva (1976) is an installation and performance artist, writer, critic and documentary maker. Her work stands out with its rhetoric opposing hierarchies, exposing inequality and the uneven distribution of resources. Between 2001 and 2006 Sandra Jõgeva collaborated with Margus Tamm in the artist duo Avangard, referring to the taboo of using the term in contemporary art with its name. Avangard’s work was characterised by irony and provocation. Next, Jõgeva worked in the artist group Pink Punk (2003–2006, various members) that highlighted social issues: for example the selling of a person's body, or the notion of prostitution in everyday relationships in the performance “Fair Deal” (2003), or marginalisation of “superfluous” people in society in “Happy holocaust” (2002). Pink Punk’s one of the more extreme examples of using an institutional art space was their performance “Wooligans” (2006), where the members of the group brought a herd of sheep to the cloakroom of Tallinn Art Hall. In her solo practice Jõgeva also continues with the radical performances she is known for. Her performance “Südame külalisraamat” (Guestbook of the Heart, 2005) was based on the idea that the most important people (and events) leave a trace in a person's heart. During the piece, Jõgeva got a tattoo on the left side of her chest, depicting a blank list that could be signed in the future. The performance was a collaboration with Peter Anderson and took place at the Living Art Museum in Reykjavík. Jõgeva has also experimented with the medium of sculpture. She has created large gelatine female figures (“Millest on tehtud väikesed tüdrukud” (What Are Little Girls Made Of), 2009) as well as silicone, latex and caramel objects. The exhibition “Seisused” (Ranks, 2008, together with Kaarel Sammet) presented fake bronze statues made of plastic, textile, wigs and spray paint. It presented a cross-section of Estonian society – a middle age teacher, a gangsta rapper, an old photographer, a business man, a young actress – while hinting at their social status.
