Blake\u2019s multi-disciplinary practice coalesces visual art, performance and dance. She investigates the way in which the body is represented and treated as an archive, which she then critically examines, disrupts, and re-negotiates. Her work directly engages with the representation and subjectification of women\u2019s bodies, while also activating them as sites and agents for socio-political change. In doing so, she created languages of resistance and spaces to expose and elude systems of power. During the opening week, Blake will present her seminal, iconic work <em>Allegory of the Painted Woman<\/em>, for two performers and four musicians, which draws from the endless stock of archetypal, patriarchal portrayals of women throughout the history of art, to highlight and subvert this recurring typecasting and objectification of women.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WHAT IF WOMEN RULED THE WORLD?
