Theater of Women
photo essay by Alina van Ryzin
These images are about people and place. How we interact with the place and how we perform in the place. The place is Bryn Mawr College – a historically women’s college in the suburbs of Philadelphia. The idea of a Bryn Mawr woman has gone through many phases, all reflections and reactions to society at large. Bryn Mawr is a stage on which the very essence of womanhood is contested. It is as political as it is personal. It is about who we are and what space we occupy.
