Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Texas at Dallas, 2010.

This dissertation identifies a feminist trajectory in the visual representations of artists Carolee Schneemann, Cindy Sherman, Pipilotti Rist, and Kelli Connell. The project sheds light on how symbols of femininity in each artist's work represent the changing attitudes of society toward female liberation through the four waves of political progress. For example, Schneemann's work is a re-appropriation of goddess imagery precipitating second wave feminist advances. Sherman's imagery shows the ability of female identity to morph under the restrictions of changing environments at the onset of the third wave. Rist's videos illustrate a nurturing quality post-liberation, as she seizes symbols of patriarchal order, appropriating them as her own. Finally, photographer Kelli Connell creates female-centered environments where patriarchal order is void, but newer, less identifiable power structures emerge through the fourth wave. Through each artists work, the project highlights society's attitudes toward female liberation and its interplay with media and technology.
