The itsnicethat brief has given me a solid kick towards visualising this zine in a specific context. I think it should be linked to feminism as that’s something I often find coming up in my research but never properly coming through in my work. The idea of equal representation for women, especially in music and films, has always been something I’ve found myself very aware of, mostly because I don’t understand how in a modern society the misrepresentation and sexism is still so prevalent.
This has all been at the forefront of my mind with the almost weekly revelations about sexual misconduct in Hollywood. While it isn’t something that directly affects me, that makes me want to make work in response to it even more. I think that if I only make work that relates to me or my life specifically, my practice will just stagnate, so I’m conscious that I want to branch out into different topics moving forward.
