Description

Jessica Barth is an American actress who joined dozens of other women in allegations of harassment and misconduct (and worse) against Harvey Weinstein. Her recollection of a 2011 incident at the Peninsula Hotel inspired a Seth McFarlane joke at the 2013 Oscars. Evans featured in McFarlane’s comedy, Ted.

Headdresses and crowns deify Kate Kelton’s subjects. She uplifts the Unsung Sheroes & Heroes, Patriarchy Smashers, Warrior Survivors, Silence Breakers, Philosophers, Truth-Tellers, Whistle Blowers and Thought Giants. She paints portraits cloaked in the garb of statues Ladislav Šaloun sculpted onto the train station that her great-grandfather, Josef Fanta, designed for Prague in 1901 – 1909.
Apotheosis through a reclaimed, reapplied Art Nouveau.
