Intimate distance: women, artists and the body

---

Intimate Distance: Women, Artists and the Body explores the intersections of gender, art, and corporeality by examining how women artists engage with representations of the body. The book analyzes the ways in which female artists challenge dominant artistic conventions that have historically objectified women’s bodies, while also reclaiming the body as a site of identity, intimacy, and resistance. Through diverse artistic practices and critical perspectives, the text highlights the tensions between distance and intimacy, visibility and vulnerability, in artistic portrayals of the female form. It also situates women’s artistic expressions within broader cultural and feminist discourses, emphasizing how the body becomes both a medium of personal expression and a space for political critique. By foregrounding women’s creativity, Intimate Distance contributes to deeper understandings of art, gender, and the redefinition of bodily representation in contemporary culture.
