Body of Opportunity by Tania Ferrier

ABOUT THE EVENT

Body of Opportunity celebrates the nude female form – a contested subject in both historical and incontemporary environments. Collaborating with a range of artists, performers and activists, Tania Ferrier has re-established the body in ways other than the traditional ‘male gaze’. The project has created a space at Gallery Central inviting women, men and children to engage with a different gaze, a “co-gaze”, in a safe space free from fear, shame and societal taboos.Through set design, installation, costume creation, photography, video and performance and the  moving image, the exhibition ‘Body of Opportunity’ reassesses ways of seeing and meaning making around women’s bodies.
