Mapping the Body

This section explores a moment of rediscovery and reconceptualization of the body, specifically the female body, in and of itself and in society. The works in this section propose the emancipation of the body by repudiating any sense of prescribed order or roles. Instead the artists reimagine the body and its possibilities.
