Ana Mendieta, Untitled (Glass on Body Imprints), 1972

this and so many other works of mendieta are getting flagged..

🙄women’s bodies are inherently pornographic and offensive, mendieta working nearly fifty years ago faced exactly the same moral condemnation and stigma, while making works about the objectification of the female body and its existence beyond dehumanizing narratives: mendieta showed the female body as powerful, dynamic, magical, as well as misunderstood, hated, and violently exploited. have ppl learned nothing? full circle indeed
