Disrupt: artists Judy Chicago: first artists I found when I looked for artists linked to my project. She's a feminist artist, and this is one of her most known artworks : the Dinner Party. She represented some other feminist in her work, like Georgia O'Keeffe or Susan B. Anthony.

Kiki Smith: for Kiki, everybody has it's own unique experience with their body, and it's reflected in her work.

Georgia O'Keeffe: I mentioned her already, but I really love her work. She paints, and her work often has a representation of life and death (flowers, skeletons...) and vulvas painted in such a way that it can be mistaken for flowers.

Katerina Marchenko: it's a Russian embroidery artist I discovered last week, and I really love what she does. She often embroiders on tulle, so it looks like the thread just floats, and I think that sometimes it really can be mistaken with a painting (with a weird texture but still)

Self-portraits by Sarah Maple, 2007.
"I had a mixed background; my mother is a Muslim and my Dad was Christian raised, but more of an atheist! So I grew up with these two very different view points but being raised as a Muslim. I am also fairly white and was raised in a very white town in the south of England, so I think that conflict was in me from a young age. You are made aware you are different from other people, from both communities. I felt very attached to Muslim culture but also felt on the outside of it due to being mixed. So there came a point when I was an adult that I felt the need to express that; it was a way of trying to make sense of it. I think many Muslims living in western countries feel quite similarly. I did this visually by juxtaposing traditional Islamic imagery with pop culture references to highlight this contrast and somehow convey the conflict."

Guerrilla Girls
Guerrilla Girls is an anonymous group of feminist, female artists devoted to fighting sexism and racism within the art world.[1] The group formed in New York City in 1985 with the mission of bringing gender and racial inequality into focus within the greater arts community. The group employs culture jamming in the form of posters, books, billboards, and public appearances to expose discrimination and corruption. To remain anonymous, members don gorilla masks and use pseudonyms that refer to deceased female artists. According to GG1, identities are concealed because issues matter more than individual identities, "[M]ainly, we wanted the focus to be on the issues, not on our personalities or our own work." (from Wikipedia)

"Reading this map, one navigates mythical territories (“Outer Sanctimonia,” “Slag Island,” “Heterotropia”), sea monsters (“Prejudice,” “Poverty,” “Ignorance,”), and fantastic topographies (“The Mounds of Mam,” “Hierarchy Heights,” “Super Ego Falls”).
Sister star systems “Pecatrix Minor” (the body of a pregnant woman) and “Pectrix Major” (a single mother with two small children) indicate punishments for unmarried Irish mothers, while “The Little Laundress” and “Ten Cigs” constellations indict Ireland’s notorious treatment of women inside church-run asylums known as Magdalene Laundries, which operated between the mid-18th and late-20th centuries; according to the artists’ research, the only possession allowed these women was 10 cigarettes. "

I did the morning workshop Soft Sculpture with Mairead Neill and Giordana Giache. When talking to Giordana I just had the idea of embroidering something, and so after a bit we came up with the idea of embroidering a fabric doll with the form of a woman's toilet sign.
I began with a paper pattern, and after cutting the fabric I sewed it together.
