8× 10 Kauai paper print of this photograph
Drawing on mythological elements of Artemis and the Amazons. A place outside of time, but in time immemorial.
Strength as we imagine it today is often seen in a hyper- masculinized way. When women are depicted as strong they are often simultaneously objectified and sexualized. A woman’s strength, her resilience and grit comes from having experienced life and survived hardship. Female strength is in solidarity, community, and embodiment. Here the women do not subjugate their animal nature: they are in relationship with it, letting their instincts guide them to protect, to defend, to create. As a pack, working together, they are stronger for each member of the group.
Revealing women beyond the typical male gaze. Their softness becomes strength, their vulnerability a power. Suspended between tenderness and rawness, they claim space, embodying the sacred act of finding strength on their own terms.
