A Feminist Dwelling

A Feminist Dwelling is constructed as a large labial installation that invites participants into a comforting enclosed space decorated with vagina flowers, through an opening that symbolises the two labial lips. Once inside and comfortable, participants are encouraged to engage with some empowering and challenging audio-visual material related to feminism, and then express any thoughts, feelings, and reflections on a vagina flower to place on the blue shore surrounding the feminist dwelling. Inspired by Sara Ahmed’s Killjoy Survival Kit, A Feminist Dwelling is built as a shelter to empower and care for ourselves from within patriarchal and capitalist social spaces, in order to stay sharp and continue to challenge what is.
