 Hi everyone,


Best wishes to you from sunny cold London!

I'm very happy to have been selected for Harts Lane's 10th anniversary exhibition The Way We Rise. It's at: 
17 Hart's Lane 
New Cross Gate 
London SE14 5UP 







The exhibition runs all week, in the afternoons from 2-7pm, until May 1st, exhibiting 50 women and female identifying artists with links to SE14. 
My piece Smash the Patriarchy is a homage to The Guerilla Girls. It's mixed media, including gold leaf on a wooden panel. I used wheatpaste to stick the prints of my self portrait on top, using the same recipe that Guerilla Girls use for their posters.
This is a fantastic exhibition! With:
