Very powerful, authentic, compelling storytelling for the need to change...businesses, fashion in particular, can be even more successful by doing more of the "right" things for garment workers and the planet...

When Tony speaks to the nuances of darker skin. He explains that it is not merely a matter of technical proficiency; it’s a testament to an artist’s commitment to inclusivity and cultural sensitivity. From comprehending the subtleties of undertones to ensuring colours pop vibrantly, the ability to celebrate and enhance the beauty of darker skin requires both expertise and empathy. In today’s diverse world, where representation matters more than ever, Tony speaks to the fact that artists must equip themselves with the knowledge and techniques to cater to the full spectrum of skin tones, affirming the inherent beauty of every individual they encounter. https://lnkd.in/e5fFCCNX

In her essay "Why I Write," Joan Didion encapsulates the essence of expression and observation, stating, "I write entirely to find out what I'm thinking, what I'm looking at, what I see and what it means." This introspective journey resonates profoundly with the works of the women artists featured in "What She Means," an exhibition that delves into the depths of female identity, perception, and articulation. It offers a kaleidoscopic view of what it means to be a woman in today's world. The exhibition's title, "What She Means," serves as both a question and a statement. It challenges us to consider the significance of women's voices in art and culture. What does she mean when she paints a canvas with bold strokes of color? What does she mean when she sculpts figures that defy conventional forms? What does she mean when she captures moments of vulnerability through her lens? Each piece in this collection is a testament to the multifaceted nature of female expression. Cultivate Art #art #collectors #EmergingArt #Exhibition

An iconic woman! Loved her bold, fearless nature, and style, not hampered or hindered by censure, prejudice, or narrow thinking. Yet another champion challenging age discrimination as well. There are 9O year olds who can beat 20 and 30 year olds at maths, 80 year olds scaling sheer cliffs, and uncovering fossils, that would daunt many much younger persons, physicians, surgeons, researchers, academics breaking the boundaries of knowledge well into the so-called twilight years. Not to mention presidents, scientists and engineers and CEOs et al. who work 18 or more hours daily, constantly contributing to human welfare and progress. Yet, recruiters, and their algorithms, indiscriminately cut out and discard persons above 45 I am told, often even those much younger, on the basis of age...thus excluding large segments of the population with loads of talent, insight, experience and the will, as well as the ability to contribute in swift and innovative ways that only experience and wisdom can bring. How best, and when will this anomaly, and predudice be overturned for good? Human rights of the 'older' generation (elder rights some call it) should not be neglected, as it is a waste of human potential and often detrimental to the persons thus excluded and relegated to the margins of society, which has economic implications as well.

Setting out on the journey of Dawat Book and as a woman myself, I'm moved by Mehnaz's resilience and the beauty she brings into the world through her art. Her journey is a powerful reminder of the strength of the female spirit and the profound impact of creativity. Let's celebrate Mehnaz and the countless others who craft hope, beauty, and happiness, even in the most trying times.
