New York:: Benjamin Rinehart,, 2021.. 5 x 5 x 3"rotating ring. Digital prints. Bristol board. Rotating images pose the question about gender - Is she a boy? Is she a girl? Benjamin Rinehart: "After not cutting my son's hair for nearly two years, he is more often called a girl than a boy. Why gender is used by society to validate a toddler's role in this world is vexing. After teaching kids at all ages over the years, I have found that specific and stereotypical gender roles are extremely limiting. Shouldn't it be that each child is allowed to decide for themselves in a natural and evolutionary way about their gender?
