WILD SWANS: INVISIBLE STRONG WOMEN
on view until 28 July 2023

Maria Contreras Coll, Anna Fabricius, Silvia Prio, Noémi Szécsi, Olga Stefatou, Iza Štrumbelj Oblak.

“The exhibition deals with issues of gender, status and roles played by the female protagonists of this exhibition in certain existential situations. We have selected artists’ projects that represent different women’s strategies, which establish emotional, sexual, economic or social possibilities for their individual empowerment in environments that are unfavourable to their unconventional choices. At the beginning, we asked ourselves the question of how gender roles are defined, or how social situations and processes in different parts of the world shape them. It is relevant to our project how the individual fates of women in these processes are seen and reflected by female artists working in the media of photography and moving images. Especially since, with the choice of motifs and stories, they partly speak about their own destinies and their personal preoccupations.”
