for my democracy and the constitution university lecture class i had to choose a political topic or issue that i could propose a new constitutional amendment or amend an old one. i chose the issue of abortion and as part of my final project i created an ovary rosary that documents the struggles off those women past and present who seek abortions. in 2011 it has been increasingly dark, and reproductive rights are quickly shrinking as the republican party is making large gains for the pro life side. i chose to create an amendment that narrows in on the definition of the right to privacy and bodily autonomy. here is a few photos of the piece. i used polymer clay to sculpt the ahnk and uterus.
