In a world in which
feminism exists, often pandering to the cis-white female, this artist’s
hardback book and exhibition hopes to break through the pre-existing boundaries
into something far more diverse. Including interviews discussing the realities
of six women, this piece aims to open up a discussion around the inclusivity of
today’s feminism, the difference in realities each woman face, and how we
choose to communicate as a collective.
The hardcover book
includes; six interviews/ discussions with women, a belly band title, yellow
card insert explaining the context and aims of the publication, and a yellow
bookmark promoting the variety of women this publication includes and supports.
Proposal of an
exhibition around the book would include; copies of the book both for viewing
and for sale within the gallery shop, A3 posters with imagery and quotes both
from the book itself and additional quotes from the interviews (not featured in
the book) for both exhibition and sale, as well as additional promotional and
advertising documents such as street/ London Underground posters, bus
advertisements, etc.
Overall this project
hopes to be a celebration of the variety of women within today’s society. Informed through a body of literature research into female zine culture, Fourth Wave Intersectional Feminism, and women's relationships with the internet, this project hopes to inspire further acceptance of inclusivity through the active participation of
Intersectional Feminism.
