You can walk too

Cristina Lucas based her project on a quote from the critics cited in Virginia Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own. The critics, Nick Greene, Dr Johnson, and Cecil Gray, concur: ‘Sir, a woman’s composing is like a dog’s walking on his hind legs. It is not done well, but you are surprised to find it done at all.’ In You can walk, too!/Tú también puedes caminar, we find the artist’s response, not without a note of acid humour, to this critique, which unfortunately is still latent in certain sectors of society in many corners of the world. Using video and photography, she sets before us images of dogs walking about on their hind legs in different domestic settings, where women are carrying out their everyday activities.
