WOMAN/MONSTER
Part I of Monstrous Women
Woman/Monster is a series of five Venn diagrams that overlap the qualities of an average woman and a classical monster. Historically, women have been taught to be ashamed of their naturally occurring features; hairy legs, messy hair, yellow teeth. Embracing these features makes them threatening to the patriarchal paradigm. Monsters represent what humanity is afraid of, and these diagrams show how easy it is to
become a monster.
