CUT OUT

Cut Out: A Feminist History of Photo Collage, Montage and Assemblage presents the previously untold relationship between photography, feminist art and collage, from the 19th century to the present day.

Female artists have long employed collage to reflect the ways in which identity is often constructed from conflicting, contrasting and contradictory parts. Cut Out explores the relationship between photography and feminist collage, foregrounding the use of femmage – a radical reclaiming of craft traditionally associated with women – as a resilient method within feminist and political art.
