How do we define ourselves in a world that constantly tries to tell us who we are?

On April 7, 2018, Syzygy is exploring identity — from race to sexuality to body image and more — with a panel of multidisciplinary artists. The process of figuring out who we are can be messy and uncomfortable, but also equally liberating. We'll be hearing from women who are exploring their own concepts of identity through artistic expression.

After the panel, we're digging into a non-commercial art form (no artistic chops necessary!) with a zine workshop. Zines are a medium that has often been use to get unheard voices into circulation.

Women are continuously being written about, policed, and defined by mainstream media — the zine workshop is a way for us to reclaim what being a woman means to each of us.
