Exposure Therapy expands to a larger discussion about how the female-presenting body is regarded in our culture. One of the most insidious ways that the female-presenting body continues to be suppressed is through art censorship. I often bring my Exposure Therapy ethos to conversations about art censorship, and the deep implications for women, LGBTQ+, disabled, and other marginalized artists.
If you are inclined to learn more about the intersection between "female"nipple censorship and art censorship, check out these talks and articles:
This project uses Instagram as a method of reaching and exposing new audiences to the movement, but also receives regular censorship via this medium. (the original account @NIPEOPLE was disabled twice by Instagram in 2021, so @nipocrisy_ was created as a backup)
Follow us here to add volume to our voice and see where in the world Exposure Therapy has reached! But the MOST important thing is to use your stickers in your hometown/travels and start the conversation in real life <3
