  • It's my turn to shine. I've longed for a stage to share my story for hundreds of years. I tried and tried, but it never happened. Thankfully times have shifted; women are now seen, even showcased. Our time has come at last.

  • Lo and behold, I am Cleopatra, depicted in ways you've never witnessed. I’m never just beauty or seduction. I stand as a wise and noble ruler of Egypt. And through the eyes of a woman, my essence is captured.

  • ​​Finally, someone painted my suffering. My name is Mary Magdalene. Not just a saint, I’m human, with struggle and depth few dared to portray. Only a woman could reveal such resilience with her brush.
