The idea for the Illustrious Women series came to me in early 2017. It seemed there was a collective need to celebrate the feminine, and I wanted to draw attention to and educate myself about the many women who have gone before me- women who lived the lives they wanted to and bettered the world in the process.

Shirin Neshat

Shirin Neshat, Iranian artist whose work explores themes of femininity as it relates to culture and gender roles. Her earliest photographic works examined women's place in relation to Islamic fundamentalism in her country of birth, specifically the requirements of the veil, but later works are more open to interpretation. Her portraits are powerful, moving, and beautiful. Her work has never been shown in Iran, and she lives and works in New York.

This is an original work of art and may show evidence of the painting process such as tiny flecks of paint or light pencil marks, which are considered part of the work. Please see detail photos or contact with any questions.

Photos represent color as accurately as possible but there may be slight variation from the screen to the actual painting.
