Julia Rice - Forum: Bendy Babes

Fragments from email:

I absolutely know what you mean about the difficulties of living as an artist. My art is very political/feminist and doesn´t sell well (so it doesn´t easily fit into the gallery scene). Recently I was in a show of outsider art (perhaps as a political "outsider" since I do have art training). Anyway, because of my art training, I don´t fit into the outsider scene too well either. I find myself in a sort of no-(wo)man´s land...not fitting in anywhere too easily.

And about the forum...this past year as part of my master's thesis at the HKU, I have created an interactive forum with my writing, advertising images, videos, some of my artwork and a link to my art website. My writing is about how women are socialized by the media to be prostitutes. My artwork deals with the interaction between women and consumer media. Through both venues I seek to engage a general public who is bombarded constantly with commercial images.
