BAG TALK with Elizaveta Federmesser

In this new BAG TALK episode, Elizaveta Federmesser is joined by writer, editor and curator, Claire Marie Healy, whose Girlhood Studies project explores how visual culture shapes the experiences of young women. Following the recent MoMu show GIRLS: On Boredom, Rebellion and Being In-Between, we talk girlhood as research practice; Kirsten Dunst filmography as a spectrum; fairytales; Ariana Grande in a hoodie with nails out; the path from the safety of the childhood bedroom and all its tchotchkes to the dark forest of cerebral girl theory and projected femininity; why horizontal stripes are girlhood coded; the safety blanket of the tumblr feed and the old hard drive gold rush; screencap culture and the magic of yellow subtitles; the power of teen print; “get ready with me” choreography; and dropping dead and gorgeous.Follow BAG TALK on SubstackMore at:Claire Marie Healy Instagram Girlhood Studies InstagramElizaveta Federmesser InstagramBAGMAG + BAG TALK InstagramGet a copy of BAGMAG This is a public episode.
