Cindy Sherman is an American artist whose work consists primarily of photographic self-portraits, depicting herself in many different contexts and as various imagined characters. Untitled #153 is a color photograph made by Cindy Sherman in 1985. In 2010, a print was auctioned for $2.7 million, making it one of the most expensive photographs ever sold at that time. The picture resulted from an invitation of the magazine Vanity Fair to create a series of photographs inspired by fairy tales. The photographs would never be published by the magazine but are amongst some of her best and more representative work. They tend to be more dark and grotesque than the sources where it is supposed to have taken inspiration, and aren’t directly inspired by any specific fairy tale. The current picture is, like its usual in the artist, a self-portrait, depicting a woman, lying in the ground as a corpse, covered with mud in what appears to be a natural environment.

Alicia Eggert is an American artist known for her installations. This animated neon sign was made to illuminate the importance of abortion access at a critical time in history. It cycles endlessly through the statements “OUR BODIES,” “OUR FUTURES,” and “OUR ABORTIONS.” The constant interchangeability of those three statements serves to highlight their inseparability — how a person’s control over their own body determines how much control they have over their future, and how access to abortions is an essential part of that control. Designed to be a mobile sign, the sculpture was first displayed at the Supreme Court of the United States before it was taken on a road trip to states across the country that were criminalizing abortion.

Modupeola Fadugba is a self-taught Nigerian multi-media artist, living and working in Nigeria. Swimming is intertwined with race, and social justice in the US. Research from the CDC shows that drowning among black children is 1.4 times higher than the rate of white children. The rate climbs to a 5.5 times difference when the research considers swimming pool drowning deaths. The disparity is a legacy of segregation in the US, where black communities were denied access to public swimming pools. For the artist, swimming is tied to a childhood fear of the ocean, which she only overcame when she was 11, and was forced to take swimming lessons in school.
