Exposed A.1
This custom fabricated lenticular piece measures 16x20" and is one of a kind. I began creating lenticular art to bring my digital art and animations into the physical world, aiming to make pieces that demand to be experienced in person. This is exactly that.
Capturing the essence of these pieces is incredibly challenging with my current setup. The elaborate process to make them suitable for online viewing still doesn't do them justice. They are best experienced in person.
I'm currently seeking gallery representation to share these unique works more widely. If you have recommendations, know someone, or have contacts in the art world, please send them my way!

Art History and AI “Female Form and Artist Depictions in the Modern Age”
In the 20th and 21st centuries, women and the female form have been celebrated through dynamic expressions in pop art, photography, and illustration, particularly as vehicles for progressive causes like the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), suffrage, and civil rights. Artists like Judy Chicago, with works such as "The Dinner Party," emphasized women's contributions throughout history, showcasing diverse narratives that challenge traditional representations of womanhood. Additionally, the Guerrilla Girls, a collective founded in 1985, use provocative illustrations and posters to critique gender and racial inequalities in the art world while promoting feminist discourse. The photography of artists like Carrie Mae Weems highlights the experiences of Black women, integrating issues of race, class, and identity, and asserting their significance in societal narratives. Furthermore, artists such as Rosalyn Drexler contributed to the pop art movement by addressing gender dynamics and women’s roles in society, providing multifaceted views of femininity that include varying body types and economic statuses. This evolving representation not only honors women's diverse identities but also advocates for their empowerment and recognition in the fabric of cultural history.
However, the depiction of women in fantasy illustrations, comic books, and graphic novels often reflects problematic tropes, particularly those emphasizing overt sexualization, ageism, and the damsel in distress narrative. The artistic representations of women in fantasy often lean towards sensationalized sexualization, which can promote unrealistic standards of beauty and reinforce detrimental societal perceptions. This tendency can leave fewer spaces for diverse portrayals that celebrate strength and autonomy. Ageism further complicates this landscape, where younger female characters are often idealized, while older women are overlooked or relegated to roles that prioritize their relationships with younger, male heroes. The "damsel in distress" trope remains pervasive in various media, frequently depicting female characters as passive and reliant on male action for their rescue. Such portrayals limit the representation of women in roles that exhibit agency and complexity.
Many talented female artists and writers challenge these stereotypes, however, creating characters who are self-sufficient and dynamic.In contrast, Wonder Woman serves as a counter-narrative, crafted to embody strength, independence, and empowerment from her inception in 1941, explicitly designed to challenge male dominance and illustrate women's capability in society, often depicted fighting against formidable foes like Nazis. Similarly, Storm, recognized as a powerful mutant within Marvel Comics, breaks barriers as one of the first prominent black female superheroes, symbolizing not only strength but also leadership in a male-dominated genre. Princess Leia, while initially portrayed within the confines of the damsel trope, gradually evolves into a representation of empowerment and resilience, showcasing her leadership in the Rebel Alliance and illustrating a strong, multifaceted character beyond mere romantic predicaments. These characters highlight a necessary shift in how women are represented in fantasy media, moving towards a portrayal that honors their abilities and complexities rather than reducing them to mere eye candy or plot devices.​ By embracing these multifaceted representations, creators contribute to a broader and more inclusive narrative that reflects the realities of all women's experiences.
The tendency for generative AI to produce overly sexualized representations of women, often featuring exaggerated anatomy and revealing costumes, can be attributed to the biases present in the training data on which these systems are built. Algorithms learn from vast datasets scraped from the internet, which predominantly reflect societal norms and stereotypes rather than a balanced representation of women. This results in a reproduction of harmful stereotypes, as AI fails to filter out content that fosters objectification and hypersexualization. ​To counteract this issue, artists can improve the diversity and empowerment of their outputs by employing specific, nuanced prompts that emphasize strength, individuality, and diverse representations of femininity.​ Additionally, artists should actively engage with and curate datasets that promote a more inclusive array of body types, aesthetics, and cultural contexts to guide the AI towards producing results that challenge traditional narratives and offer a richer, more empowering portrayal of women.

Millner, Jacqueline, and Catriona Moore. Contemporary Art and Feminism.
Conclusion pg 238
The seemingly simple question—how can feminism translate into a socialmovement today?—is a wake-up call for feminists working in the academy and theartworld to keep reaching beyond these contexts to re-develop a grass roots politicsof alliance. An interesting recent turn is feminist artists extending their practice intothe formal sphere of political institutions, seeking and securing seats in local legis-latures by campaigning on their expertiseasartists, highlighting how artists haveparticular insights into community issues and the capacity for creative solutions.
feminist art as an activistpolitics of alliance, with three main strategic emphases, namely, decolonisation; re-imagining the art/life divide, and problematising‘equality’politics.
Ethnicity won’t join a white feminist agenda. It will transform it. It willbecome the central agenda of feminism, as rightly it should, because we arethe majority...the groundwork laid by white feminists of the 1970s, that bodyof knowledge, will be a resource, but we will have to redefine it according to238Conclusion
the experience of women of colour...I can’t relate to the universality of allwomen. We make these bridges tentatively, we don’t make assumptions, webuild a relationship slowly...It’s a long struggle, a long time buildingbridges
https://www-jstor-org.ezproxy.massey.ac.nz/stable/1358556
In reconsidering the historical disjunct between the studio and the street,
feminism dovetails with, and draws upon, centuries of de-colonial cultural resis-
tance by linking the artworld to other social spaces through a porous art practice
Artists registered excessive (including failed or under-performing) gendered sub-jectivities and sexual proclivities that complicated the representational demand to bemiddle class, white, straight and good looking. White feminists also learnt from FirstNations’perspectives that proposed a decolonising non-essentialism as a starting pointfor resistant acts of sovereignty, rather than investigating the politics of media/high artrepresentation as a (postmodern) end in itself. Feminist artists broadened their sightsbeyond the circularity of representational politics, towards a politics of acts rather thanof identities.
Across these diverse spaces, we noted how
feminist pedagogy has always been provisional, just as concepts of feminist aes-
thetics have never settled
Renewed attention to the materiality of feminist arts and crafting from the 1990salso helped to sideline the linguistic models that underpinned psychoanalytic ana-lyses of gender and sexual identities. Material practices could directly link to gen-erative and generous acts of non-essentialised common cause and care.
We argued that feminism contributes new artistic perspectives on art and envir-onment by confronting the lingering and gendered view within Western thoughtof nature as feminine and/or racially other.
These challenges have further transformedthe anthropocentric terms whereby Western landscape traditions read the land toexpress self-realisation through divine or proprietorial connection, to help build aneducative, ecological ethics.We noted how feminist participatory actions often have a community base devel-oped through listening to other voices and opening up overlooked spaces of cultural agency
The idea that personal life has political implications (and vice versa) lies at the heartof feminism and of this book. Consciousness raising methods derived fromWomen’s Liberation, such as supportive group reflection on the political implica-tions of women’s personal experience, found their way into feminist aesthetics asan interrogative tool and a means to assert, diffuse and multiply agency. It’s time toacknowledge how feminism introduced this expandedfield of the everyday, thedomestic and the collective into the artworld
it has now become an aestheticnorm in global exhibitions of contemporary art, with artists creating‘diurnal’pro-jects responding to local problems, working with local art co-ops, unexpected sites,
walks and mapping to engage memory and place
This book has tried to under-stand the varied ways that‘the personal is political’has shifted both the way we doart and the way we do politics. This slogan is still relevant today, in promptingintersectional reflection on how experiences of gender are also articulated by race,class, sexuality, disability, religion and geography
the traditional political creed of‘human solidarity’.

Scheduled a solo show for November 2020 @claregallery, Working on some new pieces for “Discovery and Depth” at Yale’s West Campus showing Oct 27/28. Looking for representation and sending pieces out West. Creating art is just part of the equation. I try not to get overwhelmed with the business aspect of it all. Checklists, calendar reminders and coffee tend to help the process. :) #artbiz #artist #exhibitions #art #checklistqueen #artrepresentation #artistofinstagram #coffee https://www.instagram.com/p/BohUHbNhJi9/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1w024sbno3m95

#Repost from @blackowned_brooklyn with @regram.app ... 2 days left to see the work of #brooklynborn Jean-Michel Basquiat ‘Untitled’ @brooklynmuseum 🙌🏾 Basquiat grew up in East Flatbush, Park Slope, and Boerum Hill. Take a listen to him and others talk about the racism and stereotyping he faced in the art world and consider how we can connect and support each other to face these challenges in our own work/life. If it moves you, share your thoughts/ideas in the comments ✌🏿💛🌱☀️ . . 🎥 Radiant Child: The Story of Jean-Michel Basquiat & State of Art, Illumination Media @basquiatart . #blackabundantbk #iambecauseweare #communitybuilding #blackabundance #bkallday #bkblackartist #basquiat #basquiatart #radiantchild #brooklynmuseum #blackboyjoy #blackcreatives #creatorsofcolor #brooklyn #brooklynartist #blackhistoryeveryday #blackabundance #blackabundantart #artworld #blackpaintings #modernart #blackpainter #blackwellness #representationmatters #artrepresentation #blavity #afropunkbrooklyn #blavityart
