The Womanhouse

The Womanhouse was an influential art installation and feminist project created in 1972 by a group of female artists at California State University, Fresno. Transforming an old house into a series of provocative and thought-provoking artworks, it aimed to explore women's experiences, roles, and societal expectations. Each room featured different themes, such as domesticity, sexuality, and identity, using various media. Womanhouse challenged traditional gender roles and sparked dialogue about gender equality, becoming a landmark event in feminist art history that highlighted women's voices and issues through innovative creative expression.
