The article explores a feminist history of collage, highlighting how women artists have used the medium to challenge traditional representations of womanhood. It examines works where striking juxtapositions call attention to the tensions and conflicts inherent in female identity, from domestic life to societal expectations.
This matters because collage has often been marginalized in art history, yet it has been a powerful tool for feminist critique. By focusing on these works, the article reframes collage as a radical practice that allows women to deconstruct and reimagine their own narratives, contributing to broader conversations about gender and representation in the visual arts.
