Public/Private/Political Spaces in the Era of #MeToo.
The latest installation in the W.C. is truly site and moment specific. Meet Me In The Bathroom seeks to subvert the dominant paradigm of the public restroom as disquieting spaces often defined by patriarchal purview. Using collected cultural ephemera, Annie Miller presents the question of what these spaces might feel like through the lens of female privilege, borrowing from the visual vernacular of a grungy men’s room.
About the Artist
Annie Miller is not a real artist. Before the era of gender-neutral bathroom designations, she relished any opportunity to stride unflinchingly into the men’s room instead of waiting in line to use the women’s room.
