11VA Gender Issues T3: Self-evaluation

Imagine you are explaining your artwork to a visitor....
Would they be able to understand your message?
Would they see how much work went into it?
Would the artistic skills used in creating it be evident?

Leora Farber interrogates the construction of gender and how colonisation and Western perception affects one's feminity.  She explores the female body as a discourse - "a site of plenitude and pain, control and excess, order and chaos, matter and form".
She uses the 'lived-in-body' as a site of experience, for example in her exhibition Dis-location/Relocation she worked with Strangelove to create a series of images of aloe leaves been grafted into her skin.
