Virtual Workshop: "Making Your Own Mirror: Self Portraits + Gender Expression"

  • Translate Gender 25 Main Street, Suite 220 Northampton, MA, 01060 (map)

What are the ways you express yourself? Do you ever feel like there are limits to your self-expression? Art can be a very liberating and experimental way to play with and explore gender identity. We will discuss how at times appearance and other’s perceptions of us can conflict with one’s identity or how you see yourself. You will be invited to explore gender identity and expression through self-portraiture. We will create a working definition of self-portraiture and all skill levels are encouraged to join!
