P.E.A.C.E., Helicopter, Mother + Children, 1968. Collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art. -
"The repetition inherent in the printing process echoes the irrepressible presence of women in history I seek to capture by combining and recombining images of women from very different historical periods and cultural contexts. Yet my intervention is not neutral history, is not fixed, it’s mutable, open to interpretation, it keeps on living by accumulating new meanings.
Now this is a very subversive idea, because it means history can be changed, power relations reversed. . . "
