Bodies We Inhabit is an exhibition of eleven intergenerational women artists’ works that are linked by updated, expanded understandings of ecofeminism. Given that many cultures are built around the dual subordination of women’s bodies and earth bodies, as well as the suppression of the feminine at the service of the masculine, ecofeminism addresses the social and political parallels between women, the feminine, and the earth.

This exhibition explores the relationship between human bodies and earth bodies—life-enabling bodies of land, water, flesh, and work, that women and others collectively occupy. The artists of Bodies We Inhabit approach the earth with equality consciousness and underscore the emotional and spiritual nourishment this offers.

They also ask important questions: How can we revise the ecofeminist movement to be one that is less rooted in the gender binary? How are we centering Black voices and healing within this movement? The exhibition forms a request to honor, hold in the light, and give back to all the bodies we are in relationship with. All paintings, sculptures, assemblages, and photographs are available for purchase on Artsy.
