In Dasha Ilina's brief introduction to the works of Helen Chadwick, Cathy Akers and Sophie Rickett ("Feminist Artists Changing the World"), Ilina looks at Akers' "Pee Performances" and Rickett's "Pissing Women" as an attempt to challenge traditional ideas of dominance (Rickett) and question our relations to nature (Akers).
