Tincture
An exploration and examination of the social and cultural conditioning of women and their bodies. Imagining the impact of half the world’s population feeling defined by and perpetually focused on their appearance as their primary source of value, health, happiness and power. What is the world missing because such a large portion of our attention, effort and income is devoted so consistently to our looks and the male gaze that measures us? Inspired by the poem “Tincture” by Andrea Gibson.
