MY BODY, MY RULES is a group exhibition that examines mainstream portrayal of women, confronting the stereotypes, violence, limitations, and ideals imposed on the disputed image of the feminine body. Featuring a roster of twenty-three women artists working across multiple mediums—including painting, sculpture, photography, and video—the works in the show are unified by a strong commitment to contemporary discussions on gender, race, body politics, resilience, and self-representation amid today’s social landscape.
