Penumbra is a conceptual art installation at the Old Stone House in Park Slope Brooklyn that draws attention to the millennia-long legacy of women using herbs for abortion and contraception, a ‘birthright’ that is part of a deeply hidden, repressed, and often destroyed global practice. As part of Picturing the Constitution Exhibit, Penumbra will be on view October 20, 2023-January 14, 2024. The opening reception is October 22, 4-6pm.
In this workshop, participants will be introduced to a women’s history of abortion; confront unexamined assumptions about rights, justice, and privacy; and engage in dialogue around what we want our constitution to mean. This workshop and related Penumbra kit and installation is a part of the exhibition Picturing the Constitution. Picturing the Constitution features artists’ responses to the origins, contents, and interpretations of the United States Constitution.
