Artist Zoë Buckman debuted her “Every Curve” exhibition at PAPILLON ART gallery in Los Angeles last Saturday. The exhibit is a three-year-long ongoing body of work, merging feminism and hip-hop culture through vintage lingerie hand-embroidered with lyrics from Tupac Shakur and Notorious BIG.
Buckman, who grew up in a feminist and activist household in East London, explores lyrics in reference to women from violent and misogynistic text to sympathetic and pro-choice sentiments. The vintage lingerie garments intend to evoke the female form and ideas of objectification, while emphasizing the history of women, female liberation, empowerment, and sex.
