"Battle of the Sexes," Clayman Institute for Gender Research, Stanford University, Stanford, CA























Currently making drawings, prints and masks (take one!) for the show at the Clayman. The drawings are imagined sports posters of Billie Jean King in her prime. Conceptual historical intervention. Masks are Bobby Riggs on one side and BJK on the other, classic girls vs. boys circa 1973. BJK achieves Wheaties box fame, and cancels out Reagan America Cold War heroine Mary Lou Retton in the process. More soon.
