The concept of this series was born as a rebellion of socially imposed body language tied to gender and sexual orientation. The emotion of anger can be a great driving force to initiate action to create change; however not much accepted in non-male bodies, dismissing them for being hysterical, dramatic, cute/sexy, but not serious. There are many social “rules” that we have never signed up for and which are unjust. I aim to uncover some of those micro patterns which are embedded, hiddenly, in daily life. Symptoms of the root problem of a patriarchal system. I aim to build awareness and provide the choice of what we deliberately want to follow/support or not.
There are countless more body movements and positions which are completely untouched in general daily life, while they could make us feel more alive and empowered. Lastly, body language also reflects the underlying individual and societal blockages.
