To commemorate Women’s History Month we sat down to talk to women who have paved their way in the artistic community from different ends.
Artists, gallerists, curators, and artpreneurs, these women wear many hats and they open up to share their experiences and shine a light on important issues, from the changes they wish to see to the opportunities and the support they have found along the way.
These are their stories.
