    Abstract
    The purpose of this written report of my thesis is to discuss the visual element presented as partial fulfillment of the Master of Fine Arts degree. My creative work proposes a dialogue about the violation of women's reproductive rights in our culture. I am focusing on the inequalities set in place for all women through the interweaving of religion, politics, and visual culture.  The extended scope of the church's belief system is fueled by the media and threads itself throughout our politics affecting all women in our culture. My visual work specifically addresses the church's intrusion into women's reproductive rights. In my creative work, I juxtapose iconic symbols of the Catholic Church with contraceptives, not only to show the violation of women but also, the way in which power is abused.
