This exhibit will shift the metaphor from “Mother” Earth (someone who takes care of you) to “Lover” Earth (someone you desire to care for). If people regarded the earth as a lush Garden of Eden full of sensual pleasures, as a sweet lover, perhaps they would take better care of our planet. We’ll creatively explore environmental issues such as the pollution of the oceans, mountaintop removal strip-mining and the mindless consumption of resources. The Eco-Sexual Manifesto exhibit will ‘queer’, eroticize and glamorize the environmental movement and be both serious and satirical, a call to arms, and a political campaign. We will make, sell and give away items to promote ecosex community identification in the form of posters, bumper stickers, buttons, t-shirts, underwear, and other items. We will also create an artfully designed pamphlet with our Ecosexual Manifesto text, a rhetorical statement of political principles, which will also be exhibited as a wall-text in our Femina Potens installation.
