A reflection and a reminder. Power fades only when we forget it’s ours.

“Sea of People, All equal. We all smile, We all sing” 😊
“Ecstasy Airport” The Sun Newspaper headline from 1989 that fuelled national moral panic over people listening to music, dancing and being really, really nice to each other.
Media fuelled moral panic?
Nothing ever changes there, only the target.
New mirror works. 2026.

Ain’t Nothin’ Goin’ on but the Rent.
Weak men create hard times.
Hard times create strong women.
Currently working on some big, bold, sexy mirror pieces for a collector. WIP ⚠️

I LOVE WOMEN 🩷
I love our strength. I love our empathy, our intuition, creativity and our emotional depth that shapes families, communities, culture and art.
I love our courage and the women who reinvent themselves, speak up, take risks, create and lead. We carry generations of wisdom and possibility within us.
Women are resilient.
Women are powerful.
Women are incredibly beautiful and endlessly capable.
We are creators.
We are visionaries.
We are nurturers, protectors, leaders and dreamers.
And when women support women, something extraordinary happens. Our power multiplies. It becomes collective, limitless, unstoppable.
Today and every day, I celebrate the brilliance, beauty and strength of women everywhere.
When women rise, the world rises with us.
Happy International Women’s day 🩷
