Bunny

  • Guoste Kukcinaviciute

An earthenware sculpture depicting a toy bunny. This piece was very close to my heart as with it I explored my struggle with femininity. While growing up, I rejected anything I considered 'feminine' at that time: the colour pink, dresses, cute soft toys and such because I thought I wouldn’t be take seriously and thought that those things made me seem fragile, weak, not serious enough. As I grew up, I saw how silly those things were and how sad I am that I missed that part of my childhood. Now when My journey with femininity is still on going, learning that the things I thought were 'feminine' are not inherently that and are not fragile and weak just like I used to think. I am excited to continue to grow and learn more about myself and my own identity.
