In my world, I rule. Like I used to say, women are taking over. Seeing them do what I think my mother’s generation should or needs to do unapologetically is a big deal for me. Women in my circle and whom I watched from afar are mind-blowing and are excelling in the skills they possess. That being said, I utilize this platform to document and showcase individuals on a grand and visible scale because their dedication to making the world a freer and better space should not go unnoticed.
1. Theme: Female empowerment, independence, visibility, and the celebration of women’s achievements.
2. Process: Using art as a platform to document and showcase remarkable women, highlighting their skills, dedication, and contributions on a grand scale.
3. Emotion: Pride, admiration, inspiration, and a strong desire to see women thrive unapologetically and claim their rightful place in society.
4. Reference: Inspired by the exceptional women within my circle and those I admire from afar. Witnessing women confidently excel in their chosen fields reminds me of the possibilities my mother's generation deserved to experience. This work celebrates their courage, challenges limitations placed on women, and ensures their dedication to creating a freer and better world does not go unnoticed.
