DIA DE LA MUJER
THEME: #rrrr – REDUCED, RESTRICTED, RESERVED BUT RESILIENT
Participating artists are expected to explore this year ́s theme in their submitted artwork.
REDUCED, RESTRICTED, RESERVED BUT RESILIENT includes various visions and approaches of what is feminine. Feminization to transgender to masculinity viewed from the crumbling and dehumanizing perspective through the border relations of our times. Always being inspired by the history of woman who earned their place in the world by overcoming the tribulations and struggles that the patriarchy established. Some things have changed, yet gender-identity is still a battlefield. This project is a statement on the migration of women, focusing on the politics of gender.
