Women Constructed presents 9 female artists from the Camden Collection, all of whom look at line, abstraction, grids and construction as central themes in their work. This show profiles traditionally thought masculine artworks in an attempt to start a conversation around the idea that women are a construct of patriarchal society.
Most importantly this is an exhibition that examines the amount of women in art collections and aims to question how we can better diversify and re-examine which works get collected and how archives can help define eras in a more representative manner.
