Taking inspo from girly teenage sl eepovers we will be transforming the space to look like an early 00’s be droom\, think Groovy Chick\, beaded curtains\, bean bags and Dream Phone!\ n\nBy way of introduction to the film The Virgin Suicides\, we invite Dr S ian Lincoln to talk about her work on teenage girls and their bedrooms. In the film\, the bedroom plays a focal part in the girls' lives and is the site of the first suicide. In her talk\, Sian considers the role and signi ficance of the teenage bedroom as a key space through which teenage lives and identities play out. More specifically\, she talks about the significa nce of bedrooms in teenage girls life today\, as they interact in a comple x world of social media that comes with multiple pressures to perform and manage identities in very specific ways. Does the bedroom provide a sanctu ary away from these pressures? Or does social media inevitably infiltrate the bedroom regardless? What role do bedrooms play in girls health and wel lbeing in a burgeoning digital world?\n\nThis event is open to everyone\, if you have any specific access requirements please contact Tasmin at venu scollective93@gmail.com.
