From exploring her cultural heritage to the role o

From exploring her cultural heritage to the role of Native women, Wendy began working as a visual artist to reflect on her upbringing and early life.

Wendy engages with a wide range of artistic mediums, such as sculpture, performance, photography, video, and fiber arts, but doesn’t let any single form define her work. “I am creating an art history of Apsáalooke aesthetics. Each project I do is a different medium, and often, it’s a medium that I know nothing about,” she explains.

Read more about her artistic process. 🔗 in bio.

Meet Maggie and Mia 🤍

Maggie is one of the FF2 writers who bring you all the information you need to Support Women Artists Now.

Here’s what Maggie and her partner had to say about their SWAN Day experience.

Freaky Friday is about a mother (Tess) and daughte

Freaky Friday is about a mother (Tess) and daughter (Anna) who, after the death of Tess’ husband and Anna’s father, struggle to get along, especially now that Tess is getting remarried. They end up swapping bodies, forcing them to walk (literally) in each other’s shoes and eventually come to understand the others’ POV.

Nisha, the director, accomplishes her goal in creating a film that celebrates a particular sort of imperfect yet deep mother-daughter (and grandmother-granddaughter) relationship that comes out of single motherhood.

If you’ve never seen Freaky Friday before, see Freaky Friday. But then, see Freakier Friday too; it has merit beyond the nostalgia factor. The perfect double hitter for Mother's Day this year!

As artists, we can pour so much into the work that we forget to pour into ourselves. This #mentalhealthawarenessmonth, we'll be highlighting women artists who are learning to put their mental health first.

Chelsea O'Donnell of @stressdolls encourages all SWANs to check in with themselves and get the help they need. 🔗 in bio to read her story.

When we think of women in jazz, we typically think

When we think of women in jazz, we typically think of singers like Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holliday, and Sarah Vaughn. But what about the other instruments in the band, like pianos, trumpets, and trombones? And what about the composers and the band leaders?

That’s what the current exhibit “Rhythm Is My Business: Women Who Shaped Jazz” at the New York Public Library’s Library for the Performing Arts explores in photographs, short videos, audio pieces, and other music paraphernalia. 🔗 in bio.
