December’s Changemakers issue of Minnesota Women’s press they did a write-up about my Empty Frame in Texas and how I chose to stand in solidarity with women’s right to choose. I couldn’t have done this without the support of Art to change the world members.

ACW leader, Natalie Mcguire, submits her unique photography merging into her mosaic frameworks to galleries all over the country. The work, Bridge to Wonder, was accepted into the exhibition at the Arcadia Art Show in Tyler, Texas. When Texas passed the law denying the marginalized their reproductive freedom (the wealthy can travel across state lines), Natalie felt compelled to take action. She wrote to the curator of the exhibit that, respectfully, she could not send her art into a state which would support such a trampling of “the right to choose”. Much to her amazement, the curator of Arcadia Art Show, Dace Kidd, responded that she understood and asked if she could install her statement on a black background, framed, in the place her work would have been hung. This was an encouraging outcome, but then so what? Who is this punishing? ACW is going two steps further to help those who need reproductive services NOW.
ACW is also aware that a boycott of all things Texan punishes all Texans. If you would like to help the women currently in crisis, please send a donation to The Lilith Fund – supports the right of all Texans to make their own reproductive choices, regardless of income. https://www.lilithfund.org/donate

About Danger:
I found this sign walking along Mississippi River Road in Saint Paul; I found this sign warning me of the appending Danger of the cliff’s edge. This sign defines Covid-19 and Civil unrest and now attacks Women’s right to choose. We are entering dangerous times and need to stand up for all Equality.

Short Bio – Artist statement: Protest due to recent laws passing in Texas
Replacement artwork titled: Empty frame formally known as “Bridge to Wonder”
The image you see before you is an empty frame instead of “Bridge to Wonder,” an image that captures my soul and the way I see life to be; as a female artist, I cannot with goodwill send my art to a state that doesn’t recognize women as equals or allow them control over their own bodies. I choose to stand in Solidarity with the women of Texas and other states.
Empty frame is priced at $10,000.00 and all money I make on this frame or exhibition will be donated to The Lilith Fund. Link Below:
