Oakton exhibit focuses on women's body modification
Sep 27, 2013 8:48 PM -
Gendered embodiment has always been plastic: we adorn ourselves with piercings and tattoos; bind, confine, and refine our contours; and learn to move in and out of step with societal expectations. The Women's and Gender Studies Program at Oakton, in cooperation with the college's Koehnline Museum of Art, tackles this subject during the free art show Bodies by Design: Modification, Coercion, and Resistance.
