WIMODAUGHSIS
Exhibited at Vagina Festival 2008
Curated by: Rose Merola
Via painting, photography, sculpture, print, and video, Visual Art Curator, Rose Merola, engaged viewers with a range of work that explored* our bodies, sense of self, sexuality, and our relationships.
...In the spirit of continual striving for dialogue, understanding, and seeing things from a different perspective, we welcome you to consider and enjoy the works of the artists and acknowledge all of our “wimodaughsis (wives, mothers, daughters and sisters),” as coined by the black feminist, Anna Julia Cooper....read the "WIMODAUGHSIS" Exhibition Statement.
