Description
Expressions of girlhood are shaped by art and visual culture as much as they are represented by them. Claire Marie Healy explores this relationship, guiding us through the making and meaning of girlhood in Britain＊s national collection of art. She traces the journey of ※the girl§ in art, from a silent subject of portraiture to a self-expressive creator of self-portraiture. By studying the images that are made, shared, and collected by girls today,
invites us to readdress patriarchal art historical narratives and explore contemporary expressions of girlhood/s.
