“Her
Stories” focuses on the strength, wisdom and perseverance of the female
human spirit. Sources are varied and include a female shaman from an
extinct tribe, wives of Italian fishermen, and a heroine’s tales from
India among many others.
Each artist will deconstruct the actual
events and reinterpret them through their individual medium: painting,
video, music, poetry, drawing, sculpture, dance, spoken word,
photography.
