Welcome to the Reproductive Choice TM site.
REPRODUCTIVE CHOICE TM “symbol” -
When I decided the image for antiquated abortion – coat hanger - could
no longer serve as the instrument that harms women; I worked feverishly,
as an artist advocate to render a non-violent comprehensive symbol that
respected a person’s reproductive choices. When I had recognized the
disparity between the oppressive image of the hanger and the attainment
of reproductive freedom, I had set out to parse the forms that will have
solved the social issues gap. Because action & form were not in step
with one another the delivery of the words that propelled women to
action and the delivery of the image that reinforced those words will
have failed to produce the kind of impact had a unified form between
image & action been effectively coordinated. It is therefore my opinion
that positive change evolves out of mirroring positive rather than
negative imageries and that images need to mirror content and be in step
with their times if they are to be effective instruments for social
change.
