Feedback Survey
This workshop explores gender binaries, the body, identity, public space, and social politics. Restrooms are a space in which many trans*gender and non-binary individuals face discrimination and can provoke anxiety. As a call to action, we want to deconstruct the restroom to build a new system of signage. Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how images and language have historically contributed to the construction of social norms, specifically gender and sex in public spaces.
