Welcome to my digital art portfolio!

Hello! I am a junior at Scripps College double majoring in art history and economics. I have always been passionate about issues of gender, and have focused much of my studies on the role of women in shaping the canon of art history. Linda Nochlin's 1971 essay Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists has been incredibly formative for me, and in this project, I wanted to pay homage to this essay, which has served as a jumping-off point for the establishment of a feminist art history. Women artists have faced countless barriers to entry that have prevented them from achieving recognition on the same level as their male counterparts.  This portfolio is heavily influenced by the work of the Guerilla Girls, an anonymous feminist group dedicated to promoting equality and transparency in the art world, and Barbara Kruger, whose text style I have appropriated in these pieces. On this site, you can find my visual interpretations of Nochlin's essay created with the Photoshop skills I learned in Art 141.
