“How do the objects that surround us every day tell stories about gender?”
Students in WGS 101 Representations of Girls and Women were posed this question in Fall 2015. 120 students were asked to produce creative projects that reveal, transform, challenge, subvert, or otherwise expose the ways that gender – shared and largely taken for granted ideas about masculinity and femininity – are embedded in the objects, images, and artifacts that surround us daily.
More than a dozen creative works from this class are on view at femlab from February 15th through to April 15, 2016.
