Submerged Bodies: Mythical Reflections In South West Waters

Building upon Astrida Neimanis’s theory of Hydrofeminism, which argues that we are all bodies of water inextricably connected to the natural world, Submerged Bodies: Mythical Reflections in South West Waters explores the relationship between the artist’s body and water. Negotiating diverse cultural myths that exist around gender and water within an unfolding global context of environmental disaster, artists Melanie Stidolph, Ashanti Hare, and Teän Roberts offer water as a representation of natural cycles and a portal between worlds.
