The role of WOMAN, her status, her expectations have perhaps never before transformed with such force on a global scale. Connection to our inner voice implores us to evolve, be role models, examples, inspiration for ourselves and future generations.
As the world is changing, inevitably each of us is evolving with it and within. Inside its vortex, how we navigate remains up to us. Alongside shifting demands and radically altered priorities, traditional patterns are collapsing and social models are losing validity. Time to build our own value rankings, make decisions according to our criteria. Adapt, reassess, and set our own rules. Is it possible to embrace ourselves and our roles fully and keep it all going?
Woman.
Muse or inspiration? Inspired or inspirational?
To be a woman is to be divine, to be an artist, a mother, wife, partner, friend, sister, entrepreneur, psychologist, nurse, confidant, and so much more, our roles are endless…
What is the modern woman? What does she curate in? Is there a collective Ikigai? A connection-driven purpose? Paulina, Valentine and Andrea tell a story of what inspires them in their busy beautiful lives, what they admire, what fascinates them, what they live and dream of.
“Gentlemen Prefer Blondes” is a three women show, inviting the audience to consider how our collective past has done women a disfavor. Women are still considered second class citizens in more ways than one, from lower pay than our male counterparts to rights on our bodies, autonomy still at the mercy of powerful men, and society contributing to enforcing the idea that women need to do more while having less and less support. There is enormous pressure to be “successful” but this definition of success often ignores whether this actually mirrors who we are meant to be. With humor, courage, and women, each other by our side, we tackle this theme in our upcoming exhibition. Join us for a lively conversation with three International artists during our vernissage.
