Winter’s End by Jessica Wilson explores the societal idea of woman as sacrifice. Using the infamous Rite of Spring, Wilson is looking at cycles of power and patriarchy that lead to the repeated sacrificing of women to be seen as normal, expected, and good.
The work utilizes references to the famous historical renditions of this theme, including the work by Nijinksy and the work by Bausch, with new interpretations to show a continual sacrificial cycle through time.
