Crossing Boundaries: Women, Art and Community Activism
Women & Environments International Magazine is looking for submissions for its upcoming issue focusing on women, art and community activism from an international and feminist perspective. This issue explores the diverse artistic practices that women bring to social and environmental activism; we are particularly interested in feminist approaches that honour the process as well as the product. We encourage submissions that cross boundaries, engaging art and community across disciplines as well as from diverse perspectives and intersections of gender, sexual identity, race, ethnicity, nationality, class, ability, age, socio-cultural, and regional differences, among others.
Suggested Areas of Interest:
Art as social movement building, activism in communities
Transforming social and urban landscapes through art
Diasporic communities reframing of art
