me when i have a thought 2024
me when i have a thought exists to explore identity politics and societal expectations, focusing on how marginalised groups, particularly women, navigate white, patriarchal, capitalist systems. Informed by cyberfeminist theory, the series critiques how capitalism and social media intensify societal pressures, leading to alienation. Using photography, textiles, and the colour pink, humour and irony are employed alongside symbols like pageant sashes to explore the performative nature of femininity. The juxtaposition of protest and performance invites reflection on judgement, empathy and the lived realities of those "othered" by dominant societal structures.
