“On Woman Hating” is currently on display from September 10th to January 25th, 2024.
Guided by eco-feminist politics, On Woman Hating looks at the intersections of race, gender, climate change, reproductive rights, and capitalism to negotiate a path toward centering the divine feminine in our individual and collective activism.
The exhibition gathers artists Destinie Adélakun, Ania Freer, Misha Japanwala, Utē Petite, Adrienne Tarver, and V Walton who address various mythological femmes, cultural and religious icons, issues of sexual and physical abuse, body autonomy, and the inextricable link between femininity and the natural world in their work. It considers the contemporary consequences of societal shifts including a departure from goddess culture – that is a shift to a monotheistic patriarchal faith-based system – the development of “modern science, and the initial conception of “mankind.” Curated by Alyssa Alexander
