The understanding of the materialistic society and feminism : a thesis in Visual Design - Graphic Design
Authors: Wenyu Wu;

Gender study

Abstract

This paper analyzes several issues based on women: from the origin of feminism, the economy of developed and developing countries, and the degree of promotion of feminism proportional to the level of the economy. How do we define real beauty? From the female body structure point of view, what is the difference between female and male? From the artistic point of view, do we want art or female art? Most of the feminist artists in China have the background of hurt by males. They have been hurt by men, so they become feminists. However, this basis is too weak. My work is divided into three stages: Anger, Confusion, and Understanding. In the first stage, I made a series of illustrations created from a place of angry power. At this stage, the illustrations use a large number of male reproductive organs as the metaphor that males are more likely to achieve success in society while women are only the "accessories" of males, who can only rely on sex to achieve their goals. The second stage of my work uses "pubic hair" as the theme of the investigation and looks at the unrealistic standard of beauty, based on the idea of the perfect body. A standard that is defined by men. Then, the paper analyzes the real function of breasts: are they for breastfeeding or attracting men? In the third and final stage, feminism is studied systematically. I took a series of photographs, and this series of work is the understanding of the materialized society and radical feminism.
