‘‘People are always curious to see a woman painting such a big wall” she says. “We live in a world of stereotypes, and I’m happy I’m ruining that in a way. The role of women in arts is very important, we have our vision and that has to be spread around the world more. In previous centuries art created by women was largely ignored and hidden, that is the reason we see fewer female artists represented in museums all around the world. But now we see amazing women in every art direction.
