Change the narrative from the current to the future. Subvert our current paradigms and expectations of the body and the earth with art. Create revolutionary art that fires and awakens the senses. Root it in radical love, radical pleasure and radical compassion. Move love, connection, eros and joy. Demand a new language for this life. Rise for the sacredness of all women’s bodies. Create for the holy ground of Mother Earth. Reclaim freedom.Raise the vibration with Art. RISE. CREATE. RECLAIM

We are filled with gratitude for each and every one of you, how you RISE every day standing shoulder to shoulder with activists worldwide.
