‘Seeds of Hope’ is representative of female empowerment and community, how we support each other, share wisdom and help each other grow and become stronger. I wanted to celebrate the power and magic of femininity, as throughout my life I have been inspired by strong, compassionate women. The imagery was inspired by responses to a questionnaire I created to gain insight on confidence among women and what empowers us. Over 70 amazing women responded and with their answers as well as my own personal project research into womanhood, I created imagery for an decorative illustrated throw. Alongside the throw is a book which explains the project and the meaning behind all the imagery.
