Myriorama Content Thoughts/Linking to Essay

I feel my myriorama content is too simple but at the same time I don't want to create something too convoluted. My idea is to create cards that when put together have women from different historical eras kissing. It's simple but I think it can link to my essay very well as in the essay "Queering the Museum" it's talked about how unrelated male and female statues together, which shows the museum curators heteronormative bias, as putting them together makes them seem like a couple. By creating unrelated women that kiss when put together, the person using the cards almost become like the museum curator, putting together the pictures and women how they wish. I think it also undermines heteronormative values as it would be all women, and queers history by taking history and putting it against other historical figures.

Besides the book doesn't have to represent the essay completely, just a general theme.
