Embodymyths
Embodymyths
April 8th – 28th
New Works By Jennifer Marie Torres
Opening Reception: Friday, April 8th 6-9pm
The standards of body perfection and the myths of the female permeate all aspects of our psyche, our image of ourselves and of each other. The media, our social media and our surveys of each other are filled with images of impossible forms. We alter ourselves to match these templates. The artworks in the exhibition Embodymyths are commenting on the real. They are a celebration of our bodies as ourselves, outside the myths of history and media. Instead of measuring ourselves against the impossible these works celebrate the body as gloriously beautiful especially in its deviations from the ideal.
