ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The Future is Female is about empowering women to become leaders and embracing those values which we identify as "feminine" (nurturing, caring, creating, cultivating) as opposed to the male-dominated society we have had for thousands of years with its focus on violence, domination and the acquisition of wealth. It means that in the future women will have options they don't have available to them now. It does not mean that men will lose out or be marginalized in the future. In modern history, there have been few examples of female leadership. We do not know its power, its breadth, its diversity. What would a future that is female look like if we gave women, non-gender conforming individuals and those who are woke enough to learn from the female energy in their lives, the chance to lead? As one of the women who started the slogan in the 70's said, “If we are to have a future, it must be female, because the rule of men — patriarchy — has just about devastated life on this beautiful little planet. The essence and the spirit of the future must be female. So the phrase becomes not just a slogan, but a spell. For the good of all.”
