Our project examines the status of women in China today, particularly in the Birthplace, at Home, in the Workplace, In the Media and in the Marketplace. We hope to compare this to the status of Chinese women in the past, taking into consideration the feudal family system and traditional Asian values and how far the "feminist" movement in China has progressed since the founding of new China in 1949. The write-up on Bound Feet serves as a starting point, a symbol for the subjugation of women in China and we hope to branch out as far as possible from there.

Second, this website can be used by adults, but it is written in an understandable and concise way, so kids can use it. It could be utilized to broaden their vision of art, not just in the painting sense, but also as in , music, and crafts (such as kites.)

This webpage is a good place to begin a search for Chinese arts. If it is put on the web it would broaden peoples horizons.
