8 March is International Women's Day - first celebrated in 1911, the Day seeks to celebrate the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. It also marks a call to action to accelerate gender equality.
As we sit and watch a world, led mostly by middle-aged or old white men, take us to war in so many places, wreak havoc, and cause death, despair and destruction I wonder to myself - wouldn't women do it better? And I am mostly certainly sure that they would.
But here we are.
In small ways we do what we can to promote women; to uphold and support women, and to cheer women on. To have their backs, to bolster and boost them and to promote their excellence. Go girls!!!
I make work about women, and I make work about women friends. I hope to do a much larger body of work about women friends mid year; but for today, I am sharing my feminist poster works and postcards.
I have loaded them into the online shop and for the next week, all women's work is 10% off.
A sample of them along with two of my Fragile Gains series.
One of my favourite A4 posters...
This one speaks to me so much of all that is held within the Epstein files - such depravity and abuse of power.
We are all so much more than this; and women are worthy of respect, empathy, and understanding even if they aren't your daughter.
A catch cry for women everywhere to keep on protesting, to keep on resisting, to keep on writing and calling their political representatives...
There is only one set of these seven postcards left...
And these fragile eggshells, speak so eloquently of the gains we have made, which we must protect.
