Artist Zoë Buckman is a feminist, which permeates her work and life, and her art explores the world of contemporary art with a particular sensitivity toward issues of sexual violence, abuse, and gender identity, among other things.

In [this episode](https://hyperallergic.simplecast.com/episodes/zoe-buckman-is-no-ones-punching-bag?ref=hyperallergic.com), she sat down with Hyperallergic editor and critic Seph Rodney to discuss her last exhibition at Fort Gansevoort, which was [reviewed by Weekend contributor Nicole Miller](https://hyperallergic.com/zoe-buckmans-embroidered-texts-have-the-first-person-immediacy-of-internet-speech/). Buckman also expanded on her perspective of art that struggles with difficult issues in a thoughtful way.
