Jones, Janet A.2015-08-282015-08-282015-05-142015-08-28http://hdl.handle.net/10315/30126The invisible threads that form identity politics are especially messy today. Through the lens of a transnational/intersectional/feminist sensibility, my thesis paper and body of work weaves influences from both visual and music culture. Socio-political agency is explored through reconfiguration. Both thesis and artwork are informed by the organizational principles of collage logic - specifically through the contrast in texture and rhythm, and employing the notion of the monster as a harmony of incongruence.enAuthor owns copyright, except where explicitly noted.
