'You cannot be what you cannot see'

"You can't not be what you can not see"

Sheroes, a Lon-art project, champions little-known women warriors, leading ladies and unsung stars. We organise exhibitions, events, art workshops and museums talks in order to question the ‘gaze’ of patriarchy and to empower *women through the arts. We promote the act of looking as an active, critical dialogue.
