Scheduled for International Women’s day on the 8th March 2016, Blott Studios is staging a major feminist exhibition, featuring new work by seven regional and national self-identified feminist artists and works by international guest artist Sarah Maple. We hope the exhibition will inspire local residents and visitors to think about and engage with feminist issues and ideas.
The theme for the exhibition is continued gender inequality our collective aim is to encourage discussion and to explore issues around the representation of women, the art world, and wider society and to bring together some of Blackpool best emerging and established female contemporary artists, to further challenge the male dominated artistic canon.
