Tell me about the work you have been doing.
My recent bodies of work are around the notion of the prostitute, they are part of a dialogue about what creating a sexualized identity and advertising on the internet might mean. I take apart the process of taking photographs, I also use text and collage to question what one is seeing and who is being addressed. It is also a personal journey about my own relationship to my womanliness.

How did you get into doing this?

Feminist Art Base

Digital Archives: 
Teaser Image: 

Welcome to the Feminist Art Base, the first online digital archive dedicated solely to feminist art. This ever-growing database offers profiles from the most prolific contributors to feminist art from the 1960s to the present. Each profile includes multiple images, video and audio clips, short biographies, CVs, and "Feminist Artist Statements."

Our goal is to make this groundbreaking archive a comprehensive resource for artists, curators, scholars, and the general public. We see this database as an integral tool for accomplishing the mission of the Center: to present feminism in an approachable and relevant manner; to educate new generations about the meaning of feminist art; and to raise awareness of feminism's cultural contributions.

The Art History Archive - Feminist Art

Digital Archives: 
Teaser Image: 

Especially since the late 1960s, when the feminist art movement can be said to have emerged, women have been particularly interested in what makes them different from males — what makes women artists and their art different from male artists and their art. This has been most prominent in the United States, Britain, and Germany, although there are numerous precursors to the movement, and it has spread to many other cultures since the 1970s.

"dig me out: discourses on popular music, gender and ethnicity" (CD Rom and online archive)

Digital Archives: 
Teaser Image: 

A DVD-publication edited my María José Belbel and Rosa Reitsamer, funded by Arteleku (Diputación de Gipuzkoa, Donostia/San Sebastian, Basque Country)

Popular music expresses our deepest wishes and political flights, our imaginary bright sides of life. It is a token of love, of post/adolescent wishes, of possible sexualities and genders. It's functions as a field of research and as a ground for feminist and anti-racist networking.

Queer Female Art Show!

Teaser Image: 

Queer Grrrl Art Links

What: A zine, an art show based in Bellingham WA at the iGallery/Ground Floor in March 2010, and an ever-expanding directory of queer female artists.

Why: We need mentors! I have been searching the Internet to try to find queer female artists and come up short. We all need mentors and peers to bounce ideas off of and to enforce the notion that we do exist and we can succeed. We deserve representation!
