Title

Identity Performance

Description

This diagram shows the several ways through which identity, and more specifically gender identity, can be performed.

Much of this diagram is based off of feminist Judith Butler's ideas surrounding gender performance. The designer of the diagram, Neil Coomber, applies Butler's theories to Chinese Bronze Age burials in order to understand how gender was expressed or performed in death rituals.
