Artist Statement
This collage reflects the connection of women past with women present and future, faced with the loss of civil rights fought for and won by previous generations. We must stand on the shoulders of those who came before, who struggled for the rights we have very much taken for granted and presently find under assault.
This hand-cut paper collage is assembled using images gathered and photocopied from the public domain, as well as photographs from the artist’s personal collection.
