OUR  INSPIRATION

WOMEN & MINORITIES

Women artists make up 52% of all professional artists world wide. However, only 5% of art held in permanent collections is by women artists. This disparity in the representation of women in the establishment fine art world, not only has an economic impact on women, but also has a cultural impact. Art is a form of communication. Without a more balance representation of women in the art world, that voice is lost and the culture is skewed to represent an almost entirely masculine voice. Moreover, that masculine voice is nearly entirely caucasian. A recent data survey by NMWA [National Museum of Women in the Arts] of 18 major museums in the US found that 75.7% of all the art in these 18 museums is by white male artists.

Art is a powerful form of creation and healing. This inspires us to help heal the social and economic divide that women face in the art world and culture in general.

ADDICTION {Depression & Anxiety}

The world is incredibly stressful and art can be a method to release some of that stress and help assist in recovery.

CULTURAL

We seek to diversify the cultural represented in art history by promoting artists with cultural backgrounds that are underrepresented in the art world.
