Hysteria, the nervous condition, derives from the Greek root hysteria for uterus, and was originally thought to be caused by a dysfunction of the womb. The term has a controversial history as it was formerly regarded as a disease specific to women. I have been thinking of this exhibition for several months. I was doing a research for my own work (as an artist) about the hysteria illness, and when I saw that the etymology of the word hysteria came from uterus, I thought it would be a humorous title for a woman group show. For a long time, I wanted to propose an all-female exhibition showing something different: strength, humour and gender equality, says Myrtille Tibayrenc, curator and director of the Toot Yung Art Center, of the exhibition Hysteria , which opens tomorrow at the centre.
