On celebrating women artists and correcting the erasure of women in art
An art fair where you couldn't find a single work by women artists inspired you to create an Instagram page to showcase art by women, and enabled you to write The Story of Art Without Men. This persists. At a retrospective exhibition in January, for instance, I asked the curator about the erasure of women artists. Please contextualise why this remains the case.
How good that you noticed and were able to call that out. I think that's what it's about. We have to constantly remind ourselves about representation, and not in a pity sense at all. It has to be a good, interesting work with a unique perspective.
