Questions about what it means to be feminist today raised among us. Women protest groups call for attention to discuss their position in society. The methods to do so are interesting and somehow problematic. Such as in the case of ‘Femen’, who use their bodies to battle sexism. The angelic appearance and the rough message they deliver is very provocative and seems to fit in with the way women are objectified. However they also do this to themselves in a way. It is hard to decide what to think of women who are so explicit about being a feminist and at the same time do everything to – in a way- offend women.

  • A Selection of Details from My Graduate Portfolio - Created to Display My Year Process As an ‘Exhibition’
    AMELIA WANG a selection of details from my graduate portfolio - created to display my year process as an ‘exhibition’ instagram: @ameliawang.design email: [email protected] AMELIA WANG exhibition, curation, display. I hope for my graduate collection to be viewed as an exhibition. It is a halt in time, to capture and re-tell memories that are held within clothing. I have specifically placed focus on personal family stories since the Chinese Cultural Revolution (1966-1976). The collection objectifies and presents the experiences of three generations within my family: from my Popo (paternal Chinese grandmother) to my Baba (father), and also me. I have designed garments which cross classical fashion boundaries, steering from what usual connotations of ‘fashion’ are, and instead functioning across both commercial and non-commercial contexts. The collection should be appreciated as a build-up of memories and experiences coming together with the present in both wearable and scultpural ways; to be appreciated whether it is on a living and moving body or not.
