Abstract
The Spectrum of Feminism is a series of oil paintings with collages that address three points on the feminism spectrum. These pieces are meant to explore stereotypes and reasoning for the three identities and experiences of the points I am addressing on the feminism spectrum. The three points on the feminism spectrum within this collection are misogyny, feminism, and radicalism. I am highly inspired by my experiences as a woman and the current political climate. I address each piece with sides of reasoning for pro and anti views. My goal is to get viewers to question why these perspectives exist, and whether or not they hold similar views with any of the pieces.

I am a senior studying Psychology. I got into the DePaul Master Counseling Program for this upcoming fall. After my master's degree, I aspire to become a therapist and eventually open my own private practice. Through my high sensitivity and compassion for world affairs and moral issues, I am passionate about advocating for all minorities globally. I take a special interest in feminism because I am a woman and my experiences in life.
