White Lady Art is proud to present the first exhibition of street art by female artists based in Ireland. These talented artists, each with their own individual flourishing practice, will showcase their work together as an expression of empowerment among women artists to a younger generation of female artists. The exhibition is about women empowering women by working together. Street Art is still a relatively recent phenomenon, hitting the global stage and gaining attention within the realms of the high art world. It has carved its way into the long parade of art history, although much of the literature surrounding Street Art has had a focus of citing the profession as being male-dominated. Female artists who have had the spot-light often are discussed in the context of their gender struggles within the scene. As such, these struggles are often seen as being due to the under-representation of female artists. Female artists like Miss Van, Fafi, Maya Hayuk, Olek, Lady Pink, Faith 47, Lakwena, Sheryo, Kashink, and many more can be included as women who have paved the way for female artists today when it comes to Street Art. The under-representation of alternative or New Contemporary styles in Ireland finally appears to be positively shifting, and this is indeed a very vibrant and exciting time in Ireland for Street Art culture. This exhibition is about celebrating of equality focusing on positivity; it's a call to more female artists to embrace this style and feel welcome to participate in the Irish urban art. This exhibition also presents the debut of this newly founded collective of dedicated artists 'Minaw Collective' (M.C.) and also provides the long-awaited platform that introduces the Irish side of female street artist culture. We look forward to see more future collaborative projects from them.
The gallery has invited each artist to speak individually about their experiences working as a female street artist, either in Ireland or in their home country, and their comments will be published leading up to the opening night.
