At the Do it (her)self exhibition, we looked at graphic design in a specific perspective. We presented works related to feminist activism or arising in the orbit of its influence. The exhibition was also a story about feminist media, such as magazines and zines, which gave women the opportunity to communicate with the world on their own terms. The title of the exhibition is a paraphrase of the English-language term DIY (Do it yourself), which in the most general sense refers to the idea of objects production without professional support. On another level, it can be also understood as an incentive to take matters into your own hands and above all – an objection. To law, social norms or various forms of discrimination.
