Knickers in a Bunch is a juried women’s art exhibit created by artist April Hoff. Open to all creative women in the U.S. aged 18+ working in 2D, 3D, and written mediums. Artists were asked to consider the concepts of Beauty, Controversy, Femininity, or Emotion in their work, and this year’s jurors were encouraged to favor inclusivity rather than exclusion. The result is a wide variety of women’s voices ranging from naive to experienced.
