Prints and Installations > Heroines with Baggage Installations

"Heroines with Baggage" is an ongoing project devoted to the study of the proliferation of subtle negative gender-based stereotypes throughout the video games that I grew up playing and how the presence of these stereotypes has impacted my growth- especially in my expectations of love, tragedy, and the roles I take on in my adult relationships. These prints are derived from images I captured during my experience re-playing and deconstructing Final Fantasy 2-10, Chrono Trigger, Valkyrie Profile, Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid 2, Star Ocean, and Thousand Arms.

This image is from LEVEL, an exhibition of games curated by We Are Architects at the Arts Center for the Capital Region,NY.
