I found tragic, frightening stories alongside powerful, beautiful stories. In Pandora's Box, the boundary between strength and vulnerability is blurry.
i found a room of conversation; the stories of different women engaging in a visual dialogue.
peering into experience and identity in these ways was challenging; what gives me the right to look? what does this newfound knowledge equip me with? do i have a responsibility to share the narratives of my life with others, to tell the tales of difference to disturb the homogeneity that we have been trained to perceive and accept?
what symbols and signs are tied up in *my* experiences of identity and embodiment? how am i to tell my story? how am i to be heard?
I found some amazing artwork that challenged notions of power and privilege, among other things. It was a very inspiring and empowering display of art. - Stephanie
