Enough with the fear of fat

Title:
Enough with the fear of fat
Speaker:
Kelli Jean Drinkwater
Description:

In a society obsessed with body image and marked by a fear of fat, Kelli Jean Drinkwater engages in radical body politics through art. She confronts the public's perception of bigger bodies by bringing them into spaces that were once off limits -- from fashion runways to the Sydney ballet -- and entices all of us to look again and rethink our biases. "Unapologetic fat bodies can blow people's minds," she says.
