In “Tale Of Narcissus” and “In Our Bodies, Ourselves” the artist acts out the roles of the main protagonists in the television series “Sex And The City”, with explicit references to 1970s feminism. In “The Tale Of Narcissus” she plays the role of the character Samantha. Fox poses naked with chewing-gum vulvas stuck to her body, while she is being photographed. This gesture has a direct reference to the work of feminist artist Hanna Wilke.
