Description

Heather Graham is an award-winning actor, producer and author of a 2017 Variety essay entitled, “Harvey Weinstein Implied I Had to Have Sex With Him for Movie Role,” in which she apologized for not going public with her story sooner. This presents an acute example of how society engages in a kind of victim blaming that instills a sense of shame in the victim.

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.
