OVERREACTING: Jewelry Speaks Feminism & Gender
Nine artists from Israel discuss gender roles, body image, femininity and a woman’s place in society using jewelry as their language of expression.
Contrary to popular opinion that women are often “too dramatic” and associated with qualities such as hysteria and overreacting- we celebrate the stamina that comes with such emotion turning it into art, a means for us to be heard - a virtue, not a weakness.

The name for this exhibition refers to popular opinion that women are often “too dramatic”, associated with qualities such as hysteria and overreacting.
