So Feminism, as we already discussed (or rather didn’t discuss) is pretty broad and because it’s so damn broad and I have 3 weeks (lol not stressing at all), I’m gonna focus on the Women’s March and the Marches that have taken place recently.

Reasonable place to start? I think so too.

So where do I start? Maybe at the beginning?

Well let me tell you that the first recorded Womens March was in Versailles in 1789 during the French Revolution, women been fighting for dem rights for some centuries. I feel all their views however were aligned with one goal.

So Women’s Marches aren’t this new thing that was created around the fact Donald Trump is an awful awful man, but they’ve been helping women fight for their rights for a long ass time.

So how can I relate Women’s Marches to art? Or portray such emotion and  an expression of women fighting for their rights and what they believe in, that I haven’t conquered yet. I am however going to try and conjure up some inspiration by a couple of exhibitions that have caught my eye, more on that one later.

I did also in a complete moment of  spontaneity go and see the Gregory Crewdson exhibition, I KNOW HOW BOLD, and what relevance does this hold I hear you say? Surprisingly quite a bit actually, I found the way he curated his photographs mesmerising and gave me food for thought with once I get started how I can put together my imagery.

I feel Womens Marches are very much an expression, like art in themselves really not just the signs of protest and the beautiful imagery/messages these signs hold but the actual act of them marching together.
