Our Bodies Through Our Eyes
Our Bodies Through Our Eyes brings together the work of these seven women artists, many from the Bay Area, to exemplify how the female body and its representation can be used as a vehicle of resistance, reclamation, and healing. Our Bodies Through Our Eyes presents the unique perspectives of multiple generations of makers, all of whom work in distinct styles and from different approaches. The exhibition’s curation focuses on representations of the female body to explore a range of expressions, from personal narratives to psychology and symbolism, as well as social and cultural contexts in the present and throughout history. In dialogue with one another, the selected works aim to challenge conventions and biases surrounding women and to recontextualize their roles and identities through art.
Featured artists include Gina M. Contreras, Annie Duncan, HUANG Hairong, Hung Liu, Ren Light Pan, WANG You, and Stella Zhang.
