Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The Women: Hood Oral History Project collection dates from 2018 to 2023 and consists of 52.7 GB of digital materials. The collection includes thirteen oral history interviews with women of diverse backgrounds focused on their experience of womanhood and femininity, and digital images of artwork responding to the interviews. The Women:Hood Oral History Project has two editions. The first is based on interviews conducted from 2018 to 2021 and the second is based on interviews from 2022. Each edition includes recordings and transcripts of the full interviews, which usually run from forty minutes to one hour in length. The interview highlights from each edition were compiled into roughly 20 minute videos, which are available along with the oral histories in each edition. The first edition of the project also includes a recording and transcript of the virtual reception’s keynote address by feminist philosopher Asha Bhandary. Finally, both editions include a responsive artworks sub-series. Every artist included digital images of their work along with artist statements and biographies.
