A Woman's Perspective

A Woman’s Perspective – The Female Body as a Force Field

What happens when four female artists are brought together to create an exhibition focusing on women and the body?

Is it feminist art?

Yes! Because the noblest purpose of feminism is to break down patriarchy’s over-focus on men by granting women the same right to express and develop themselves. The four artists in this exhibition use this freedom to create what they are passionate about sharing with the world, and will, solely by virtue of their self-actualized voice, carry a feminist standpoint. The exhibition shows different perspectives on the female body, from the struggle for self-determination and body acceptance to the right to define one’s own identity. Here, personal experiences are woven into stories about autonomy, freedom and resistance, and examines how both bodies and nature are subjected to control, projections and exploitation. This perspective points towards an ecofeminist understanding of the body as part of nature’s living network and as a portal to something original – both ancient and new – in a time marked by artificiality and loss of connection to nature.

The artists insist on maintaining their own experiences as valuable testimonies that bring the feminine back to the center and challenge narratives where female experience is made secondary. The exhibition creates a space where courage, vulnerability, strength and solidarity are united in a living story about the female body as a force field for change.
