Stephanie Fairyington with Monique Jenkinson - Ugly: A Letter to My Daughter
SEE EVENT DETAILS
A tender, moving, and insightful account of queer motherhood and an interrogation of life on the margins of American culture as a self-described "ugly" woman. Interlacing cultural history and analysis with memoir, Ugly is a probing investigation into cultural norms and the formation of our aesthetic sense of self. By sharing the history of her troubled self-image, Stephanie Fairyington invites us to go rogue, to invent a new language and logic to overthrow all the ways that women have been cultivated to hate themselves. Stephanie will be joined by Monique Jenkinson, an artist, choreographer, performer, and writer.
