> Private collection, Paris Jann Haworth's work reflects her commitment to social and artistic struggles, particularly against sexism. She is a true pioneer of soft sculpture, alongside Patty Mucha and Yayoi Kusama. For her, couture was a way of appropriating American culture and male desire and freeing herself from the image of an artist's wife.
