UnTitled Women
UnTitled Women
IF THESE WALLS COULD TALK>>>>>
My female relatives were quilters, cooks, and crafters. Although they did not call themselves artists, they decorated their spaces by adorning their walls with stencils, embroidering pillows, and stitching doilies. A home holds dreams fulfilled, forgotten, and unachieved, making the idea- if these walls could talk, seem all the more powerful to me. While sifting through old magazines, I collected images of women reflective of self-image and gender roles. I found women among flowers, women at work (mostly domestic), and women in mirrors.
