Pink and Blue
Artist Statement
In this project, I observe young children at play. I relish their enviable intensity of focus and lack of inhibition as they play with their toys and interact with one another. Yet, they are not completely unbounded. Boys will be boys. Girls will be girls. Still. The binds of gender socialization remain. Some apparent blending of the roles has occurred, the result of changing attitudes. The question of how much roles are a product of nature versus nurture lingers.
