During the creation of The Dinner Party’s plates, Judy Chicago created collages on paper for the women at the table. Included in each were useful quotations, the design for the woman’s plate, and material samples. When assembled, the collages served as both a tonal and factual bridge between the research process and the creation of the finished pieces. Modernist author Virginia Woolf (British, 1882–1941) is evoked in this collage, which details her strength in the face of societal oppression.Posted by Isabella Kapur Judy Chicago (American, born 1939).
