Acrylic, collage, colored pencil on layered hardboard, 16” x 20”, 2023.

This work is a statement about abuses and denial of rights women the world over have suffered, and a celebration of those who have escaped either on their own, through organizations fighting on their behalf or with the help of men who understand what’s at stake not just for the women, but for themselves and civilization as a whole. Please see closeups of the phrases in this work, many of which you may have heard in your own lives, either directed at you, at someone you love or know, or in known cases of domestic abuse:

If you are, or know of someone, being abused in a domestic relationship, female OR male, please reach out for help!

Or click on the image above to be taken to the
National Domestic Violence Hotline

OR CALL: 800-799-7233.

Remember that abuse thrives in secrecy and silence.

Please do not be a statistic!
