Jennifer Ling Datchuk American, b. 1980

In her latest work, Datchuk continues to build upon her “object-based practice” by initiating thought-provoking dialogues that confront the misogynistic conventions that continually stigmatize women who defy traditional roles. Hear Us Coming features 8 porcelain cat bells each measuring 3 x 3 x 3.5 inches. Datchuk states,“As an overeducated, cat-loving, elder millennial in a committed and loving relationship with a man and cat, I am actively fighting against the social, cultural, and political systems that continue to hold women back. Adorned with large porcelain bells, they will hear us coming and continue to fear us because karma is a cat."
