This is Her Story is a narrative series of portraits featuring both mythological and historical women whose fates have become iconic templates for female identity. The experiences of these women become intertwined with those of a modern child, a young girl dressed in white who features in the landscape of each painting. This unique fusion of past and present offers an exploration of artistry, the evolution of storytelling, and the influence of history on perception.
