The final show I review below got me looks that made me feel like a fish in a bowl. First, the private security at the door had two Valiant rent-a-cops who scowling at me-and only me-with that same 'Give me an excuse!' glare I've gotten from real cops all my life.

The deeper I go, the more feminist I become! Yet my experience of academic philosophy has largely disclosed the opposite: a discipline that solemnly declares its devotion to openness proves curiously unsettled by me as a woman.

Athens is a place you feel, not see. The beauty and soul of the city is laced into the way of life - the small moments and exchanges that happen daily - rather than in immaculately preserved monuments, museums and high streets like those of other European capitals.

Reza Salehi Amiri stated, 'We are not talking about stone and mortar... We are talking about the memory and history of a people. This stone represents who we are.'

I would squirm in my chair as my new teacher worked their way through the class register, and my stomach would drop as they attempted to say my full name: Priti Ubhayakar.

I create sculptural hairstyles using my natural hair as a material. I add some extensions, and shape it with thread and wire. A sculpture can take me from 30 minutes to more than six hours.

Ann says, '[Carolyn] said she didn't recognize who she had become, and now that person will be immortalized forever. I only wish she had lived long enough to be remembered for something else.'

'Laserheart reflects my journey of transformation and courage. As a trans woman, this song represents reclaiming my power, my voice and my identity. It's about standing fearless in your truth and turning vulnerability into strength.'

Dolores Huerta, at age 88, danced unapologetically with a group of friends at a gay bar, embodying a liberating spirit that challenged traditional views on aging and identity.

Textiles are a window into the communities that created them, with every motif and line signalling a different memory, tradition or identity. Often seen as folk art, these pieces of embroidery and weaving bring together dozens of narrative threads, from Japan to South America. But nowhere is it more fraught with meaning than in Palestine.

Abel Ortiz's visceral reaction to American tourists arguing in Mexico City revealed his complex feelings about identity, as he felt compelled to confront them, saying, 'Not in my country!' despite having spent most of his life in the US.

Anderson's washed out, hazy, heat-drenched take on figurative painting is him trying to figure it all out, to make sense of a senseless world.

This depicts Guernica after the battle. The figures are no longer fighting. They're in a giant pile. They're exhausted and there's a sunrise on a new day behind them. The title of the work is A Whole New World (for Who?). It's asking what's going to happen after the conflicts that we have. Who's going to be taken into that new world?

The concert features 'Field of Sorrow,' a new work by Juhi Bansal, which sets translations of landays, women's poetry from Afghanistan, for soprano, cello, and piano.
