Facebook / Instagram / YouTube4. Call for Artists, Nasty Women Connecticut and the Yale Divinity School, deadline Febuary 15
Please join Nasty Women Connecticut and Yale Divinity School as we bring you “Complicit- Erasure of the Body”. In light of the #MeToo Movement, and as we think about the grey areas of this movement against sexual violence and harassment, we invite you to express how acts of complicity remove one’s voice, erase the body and sense of self from the emotional, the spiritual and the physical.
Our call invites all artists, makers and creators to use their voice to create a visual or literary work that embodies this theme. All types of medium are accepted with some size limitations.
Any questions please email nastywomenct@gmail.com
