The Body Concepts Guide
About The Guidebook.
Written and designed as an attempt to understand and criticize how authority within our society imposes its hegemony and control over our bodies. While also introducing concepts which act as tools that can be used to dissolve these structural oppressions, liberating our bodies, and creating a safe unified language to face this repression without imposing more constructs, molds and restrictions on the marginalized groups that are subject to such hegemony and repression, but on the contrary, allowing these “bodies” to break away from norms, stereotypes and other identities that are imposed on them.
This project was developed with a local artist {Ms. Serene Gharaibeh} & content creator {Mr. Musa Shadeedi}, with the collaboration of Aman Space.
The Body Concepts Guide Launch Event
Aman had the launch event for the Body Concepts Guide , where the walls of the space were turned into an exhibition gallery for the 12 prints of the guidebook.
The exhibition started off by a discussion panel to explain the ideas, concepts and artwork behind the guidebook with writer @musashadeedi & artist @serenegharaibeh . It was a marvelous turn up and we’d like to thank everyone for attending and sharing this special day with us!
