MUSE
2019
Muse is a collection of counter narratives presented through a 360 virtual exhibition.
This intimate immersive experience revisited the silent muses of art history, who we have often seen but never heard. Through collaboration and video portraiture these women were allowed an opportunity to self-express and self-determine. Together, a community of female writers, actors, and artists sought to re-evaluate not just the women in the frame, but the role of women in the Arts and wider society.
