A matriarchy is a social unit governed by a woman or group of women. No one knows if a true matriarchal society has ever existed, so matriarchy is usually treated as an imaginative concept. I started this project out of pure helplessness in the aftermath of the 2016 election. All I could do was draw the women I wished was our President. Down with the patriarchy, bring on the matriarchy.
I do a project for Matriarts every year, adding new protraits as new female icons emerge. Please visit www.thematriarts.com.
