Sarah's Scribbles By Sarah Andersen
title
Sarah's scribbles is a comic written by Sarah Andersen, a young American artist. She started making comics when she was in college getting her art degree. She finds inspiration from her daily life, and started making comics as a way to express her feelings. She likes to take her feelings about situations and turn it into joke that's universally relatable for everyone. She depicts universal experiences many women face, covering topics such as: menstruation, capitalism, love, metal health, stereotypical gender norms, etc.
I consider her work to be feminist because she’s critiquing societal inequalities through her art, and normalizing many experiences that women/people with uteruses face. Her comics often express frustration or exhaustion regarding issues of oppression/inequality.

Its appeal is in how relatable her comic is, it speaks to a lot of people in fun light ways about issues that can be emotionally taxing to examine. Because of this her comic has gained a lot of popularity fairly quickly. She allows fans to translate her comics and has big followings in Russia and Spanish speaking nations.
Sarah is abe to depict her dramatic reactions to the frustrating she has had to put up with in her life in her comics. Her character is often shown reacting extremely to situations that in real life, many people accept as normal. Her dramatic reactions perfectly represent how I feel facing issues as a feminist, but still may not react to because I’m expected to accept my situation. It feels almost freeing to see her outrage and seemingly ridiculous issues faced by women

    Much of her art may inspire it’s viewers to think about gender and/or sexuality, as it explores such topics. My favorite pieces of hers are her photogenetics, as they intrigue me. Some appear to be female, but are not what one would consider beautiful, which may cause the viewer (such as myself) to ponder how beauty and gender are associated. Her sculptures reflect the same themes.…

    She thinks material that humiliates women in this way should be restricted, shut away from the public eye, instead of flaunted as it's been in the past. One example she makes is that if the public perception of women is that they are objects, a rapist might safely think he's done nothing wrong.…

    Frida Kahlo Essay

    She never self-proclaimed herself as a feminist, though I believed her paintings and her political stance in Mexico help inspire other powerful women after her death. Another quality that I felt she was able to encompass in her art was the liberty and freedom she had to experiment with her sexuality. The Mexican revolution was Frida Kahlo’s chance to completely enter the men’s art circle. Her art and behaviors were seen as being rebellious and unethical for a woman in the early 1900s, though she didn’t see herself as being a feminist, I believe that she showed women in her society and time that even having Diego Rivera as her husband and his art work overshadowing her, it never stopped her from continuing her goals of being a successful painter and getting her emotions on to a canvas. As Frida Kahlo tried to break in to the heavily dominated male art society, by engaging in political movements and freely expressing her thoughts on social reform and smoking; her art work still contained a feminine element to them. Art for Frieda Kahlo was her form of therapy, from the physical pain of her illness and accident to the mental pain of her miscarriages and husbands infidelity. Frida Kahlo’s works always take something intensely personal and transforms it into something universal on canvas for all of us to try and…

    Feminism is the movement that aims to gain a better understanding of gender inequality, politically and sexually. Feminist fight on issues such as domestic violence, sexual harassment, and discrimination. Feminist also argues that they are treated unequally with issues that include stereotyping, oppression and patriarchy. When looking at pieces of literature such as Chopin “Story of an Hour,” Gilman “Yellow Wallpaper,” Williams “Streetcar Named Desire,” Henderson “Trifles,” and Mina Loy “Feminist Manifesto you see the actuality of how poorly women and even married women were treated throughout the years. Feminism represents the next step in the evolution of the feminist movement.…
