The meaning of feminine

This week I am exploring what Feminine means, what decoration means, and what objects are associated with feminism in the eyes of a cross-section of my peers.
I am also exploring why feminist is a negative word in the current generation, and what that means for women in today's world and in the future.
Work in the studio has been productive if a little difficult this week. Pieces have been developing but I have been second guessing myself a lot. Looking forward to my critique to get some feedback on what is working and what isn't. Been trying to get some pieces semi-done or at lease mock-ups for critique, so that I can show everyone what I have been working on.

Here is what I have been looking at this week:
Bart Hess
I know i've posted his work before but it's still amazing

Paolo Uberti
Surrealist artwork. Yummy.

Interesting jewelry and fashion

Overcoming impostor syndrome
An article about 'impostor syndrome', which is when women over compensate at their jobs because they feel inferior to the men around them. It's interesting but I don't know if I agree with all of it.

Alessandro Puccinelli
Beautiful photography

This one is just fun, really intricately carved pumpkins

Lyan de Jesus
Very detailed and deco pieces
