Audre Lorde was a noted civil rights activist. As a lesbian (but also bisexual) woman of color she wrote with poetic force on feminism, sexism, racism, class, civil rights, & the identity that is the Black woman.

She is remembered for her poetry, which was characterized by her technical mastery, emotional expression, and use of anger & outrage at personal experiences she had with civil & social injustice throughout her life.

You will receive...

  • An original, signed, dated, & numbered print backed on foam and printed on 80# silk cover paper, in a crystal clear cellophane sleeve (aka ready to display).
  • A handmade chakra floret (for the Solar Plexus).
  • A piece of raw Citrine, hand picked by me for you.
I've always loved quotes, especially from strong women of color.  The translation of their power through voice is unmistakable across the void.  I came to this quote through a talented artistic activist, Alexis P. Morgan (aka The Abbess of The Church of St. Felicia).  In the short time I have known her (2 years as of this posting) I have had the privilege of seeing her strength manifest and been introduced to many experiences of otherwise I would have been deprived.


Watercolors & contour drawings, as well as calligraphy, are among some of my favorite mediums, so when the idea came to me to create this piece I knew it would be at the intersection of those mediums.  The original I made and gave as a birthday present to the aforementioned Alexis, but I loved the piece so much I knew I had to make it available to others.  I went with a limited run of prints, a total of 25 (of which 24 are still available).


Each print has been signed, dated, & numbered by hand by me.  It is also backed on foam board & placed in a protective sleeve to it's ready to hang on your wall or place wherever.  In addition to this I include a handmade chakra floret, for the Solar Plexus (seat of will & power) + a handpicked piece of raw Citrine to remind you of your personal power (not pictured).


Specs:
  • 9" x 12" print on 80# silk cover paper
  • Backed on  9" x 12" x 3/16" glossy foam board

Quote by Audre Lorde, original art by Aradia Goseling.  Part of my Perfectly Pigmented line, in my Decor collection.


*I create each original painting with love (which is then printed professionally), allowing for a true one of a kind touch to each original version.  I take great care in my work to create from a meditative & sacred space.  During the creative process I also clear & imbue each item with Reiki for the highest good.  This meaningful & balancing touch allows you to receive or give, as the case may be, a heartfelt & soul-centered gift.  If you’d like to know more about sacred space or Reiki you can contact Rev. Naware Danaus, RMT of Danaus Divine.*
