We invited some artists and some subjects – women who have had temporary art displayed on their bodies – in this discussion table’s case – the art was done during a pregnancy, one was a body contour study, and one was a map drawn to feature the scars of a terrible accident resulting from a stroke.  Our artists focus on human art – art on the human body, art that studies the human body, and art that celebrates age and experience in women. In this first episode of this discussion series We're calling “The Perception of Women”, we largely focused on art and beauty as it relates to nature, disaster, and disease.
