PCA&D requires a senior thesis to be completed during the final year of college education. Thesis is a large, independent branding (design major) project that students take on during their senior year of college to fulfill their graduation requirement. It is the culminating work of their skills from the last four years of design school.

 

Inspired by my own experience as a woman, my thesis focuses on feminism. I work to challenge the idea that society has programmed strong women to see dominant traits as problematic, angry, and aggressive. My thesis, “Boxed Bitch: An Angry Women’s Gym” uses these themes in a satirical way to create an inclusive boxing gym for women, where they are free to express their anger in the most aggressive and socially problematic way possible.
