A Design Exhibition Curated by Doyenne Studio
About this Event

Feminine Literacy is an exhibition reclaiming the word "feminine," dismantling the connotations usually assigned by patriarchal ideology while restoring the depth and meaning of the feminine approach. Drawing from eco-feminist theory, regenerative practices and inclusive approaches, the featured designers embody a shift from domination to collaboration and from extractive systems to restorative ones.
The exhibition presents a paradigm shift, moving away from the notion of design as an isolated practice and looking toward design as a practice of coexistence by exploring themes of interconnected wellbeing, systemic thinking, coexistence, and collaboration with other organisms and wisdom-keeping through craft, land, and heritage.
Featuring: Agne Kucerenkaite, Alis Le May, ALMA Futura, Anna Zimmermann, Aura Morillo, Aurore Brard, Cancellato UNIFORM, Eve Eunson, Jessica Redgrave, Lameice Abu Aker, Lena Bernasconi, Linda Ammann, Louise Skajem, Maca Barrera, Mathilde Wittock, Matter Forms, Mireille Steinhage, Monika Dolbniak, Trisha Gow, Paula Camiña Eiras, Rameshwari Jonnalagedda, Rosie Broadhead, Sanne Visser, Scottish Fungi Dye Group, Studio Sarmīte, Silke Hofmann, Veronica Collins
In partnership with Common Practice
With the support of Kenoteq
