| Summary: | There are countless ways to tell a story about women, and this one does it using objects. Hundreds of everyday objects, fashion, medicine, art, quiet and loud objects, those that testify to women's desire for freedom and rebellion, but also those that stand for the myths and norms that have always been used to keep them down. Annabelle Hirsch creates a cosmos of women and their things. We come across an antique Amazon doll, a Lilith amulet, Hildegard von Bingen's nun's crown, Venetian stilts, a bidet, a hunger strike medal, a plate by Vanessa Bell, the cotton bag of an American slave, a brooch by Hannah Arendt, a "100 km/h coat", a Tupperware container and much more. |
