How do artists act in the postcolonial, digital present from their respective situations? What emancipatory understanding underlies their art? How do they broaden the view of a feminist-oriented future?
Empowerment: Art and Feminisms is a South Asian travelling exhibition, showcasing the work of 31 feminist artists and artist collectives. It looks at inclusion at all levels and showcases the voices and rights of various gender and social minorities, especially in the context of South Asia.
Works in the multidisciplinary exhibition are presented in seven categories: Herstories & Other Narratives, Desired and Violated Bodies, Feminist Futures, Gender Identity, Labour of Care, Planetary Challenges and Resistance Protest. The exhibition is accompanied by an extended side programme.
