"Exhibiting You" - Author
Jane Evershed
City, State: Springbrook, WII have been painting and writing to empower women to their rightful seats at the table of global consequence now for over twenty years. I was born in the UK and grew up in South Africa during the height of Apartheid and witnessed the oppression of people firsthand as a child. This experience informs my art to this day. I have also produced many published works regarding the state of the earth's ecology. In 1984 I moved to the US where I have run my art business since 1989. I am first a mother, second an artist and then a poet writer and public speaker concerned with the parallels of the destruction of women and the destruction of earth.
Through positive imagery of women and other visions that counter the all pervasive violent imagery of the mainstream media. I depict humans as deeply connected to nature. I depict change through my writing and art series such as"The Realm of the nurturing Man, The Rights of children, The Power of woman and the Scarred, sacred Earth series.
