And All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt by Dafna Steinberg
April 23, 2018Exhibition: May 4 – June 9, 2018
Opening Reception: May 4, 6 – 9 PM
Dafna Steinberg’s work spans a variety of mediums, including photography, video, collage, installation and performance. She incorporates themes that relate to the experiences of women, especially relationships and understanding men and women.
And All I Got Was This Lousy T-Shirt began while Steinberg was an artist in residence at the Vermont Studio Center in 2016. Though a catalyst for the project was a personal trauma she had experienced just before the residency, the work evolved into an emotional response to the current political and cultural climate regarding objectification of the female body, reproductive rights, sexual assault, and the continuous attacks on a woman’s right to be autonomous.
