Influences

11-5pm. 

Throughout the summer artist Phoebe Davies has been working with young women from Romsey Mill youth centre in Cambridge to explore current attitudes to gender equality, feminism, female expectations and individual agency.

Building upon her evolving project Influences Phoebe and the group will be using the contemporary culture of nail art to create a new set of nailwraps depicting people of personal influence or significance bespoke for Women of the World Cambridge 2014.

Over the Sunday the nail designs will be applied and distributed from a public nail bar run by participants, which will act as a site for conversation and exchanging opinions and ideas, questioning what feminism means to young women today.
