Micol Hebron
Roll Call, Part II
December 7, 2014
Auto Body Miami at Giant Motors
Inspired by Carolee Schneemann's historic 1973 feminist performance Interior Scroll. The text on her scroll, removed from her vagina, advised women on what kind of treatment and attitudes to expect from a patriarchal world. She referred to the vagina as a space of "interior knowledge." This canonic performance served as an inspiration to challenge inequities in the systems of the art world. Hebron found that Schneemann's writings on vulvic space were totally appropriate to her agenda to find a space for women in the art world, and thus for Roll Call she used the very space that makes her biologically feminine.
