Together But Separate: Images of the Sovereign Feminine

Library Student Mini Grant Award Year: 2017-2018"Together But Separate” is a photographic exhibition proposal that addresses the subversion of gendered power structures through art objects. The project confronts themes of sexism and misogyny in order to understand how the strategic implementation of violence towards feminine and queer bodies has been leveraged as a tool to maintain dominance in a patriarchal society. The goal of the project is to deepen understanding of how misogyny continues to affect the status of women and feminine-identified people in the contemporary moment, and to illuminate tactics for reclaiming our labor and bodies in a socio-political climate where our progress towards equality is threatened.https://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/142992/1/Renee, Rowan_MiniGrant2018.pptDescription of Renee, Rowan_MiniGrant2018.ppt : Presentatio
