Description

Uma Thurman is an American actor, writer and producer and one of over 80 women to accuse Harvey Weinstein of harassment and assault. Thurman’s interview with Maureen Dowd in the New York Times was the catalyst for examining how journalists should cover such cases in the age of #MeToo and moving forward.

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.
