Goddesses and Monsters takes up one of the most enduring themes of feminist art praxis: “the uncomfortable tensions that arise while claiming femme power and subjectivity within a white supremacist, capitalist, cis-heteropatriarchial culture.” The works in this exhibition utilize the archetypes of Goddess and Monster (sometimes simultaneously) to present windows into worlds on the horizon of our current politics. Goddesses and Monsters is trifurcated into three segments of feminist discourse: Icons and Myths, Ritual/Remnant, and Unruly Bodies. As a non-hierarchical collective invested in creating a more democratic art world, the Association of Hysteric Curators uses an open call and collaborative curatorial model that produces polyvocal exhibitions and allows a wide variety of artworks from artists at various stages of their career to engage in aesthetic and thematic dialogue with one another.

Goddesses and Monsters exhibition at LADIES’ ROOM is a seed that will blossom into an IRL show and will include performances, programming, and community engagement from participating artists.
