Session: Art, Entrepreneurship, and the Empowered Female Form

Because seats are limited, registrants will automatically be placed on the waitlist, and will be notified via email if confirmed.

Entrepreneurship is often described as encouraging, unapologetic, and as a way of taking up space. In this Session, we will discuss how entrepreneurship, through the lens of the female form, can be empowering. How does the female form take up space? How do practices of art, representation, non-verbal poetics, and “not performing,” play into notions of womanhood and self-empowerment? Lead Sessionist, artist and illustrator Haley Brown, invites you to this Session on creating space for business in unapologetic art. All are welcome. 

Lead Sessionist: Haley Brown (M.A. candidate)

Haley Brown is an artist and illustrator known for her unabashed and whimsical watercolors of unforgiving “ladies.” Since 2018, Haley has owned and operated her business, having taught herself marketing, business management, and production. Being an entrepreneur is closely tied to her creation of audacious, freely formed characters. Hayley is completing her final semester as a master’s degree candidate in Archaeological Studies at Yale where she focuses on Archaeological and Science Illustration. View her watercolors at www.paintbyhaley.com
