Artist’s Biography/Statement:

Constructed with vintage religious icon pieces, salvage cigar box, paper, paint.

This piece shows the icons painted and made to resemble the women in the Handmaid’s Tale film series.

It predicts what the future of young women will be if we allow this Supreme Court to continue to rule against personal freedoms – i.e. same sex marriage and contraception choices.

I am a 76 year old great-grandmother who can remember what it was like prior to 1973 and abortion was illegal.  

I have always believed that this decision belongs ONLY between the pregnant woman/girl  and her physician.  The government should have absolutely no voice in regards to healthcare decisions.  I am a strong advocate of women’s rights – equal rights.
