​​“The Gods will always smile on the brave women.” ​-The Seer (from Vikings)

​“Shieldmaiden” (Sköldmö) is
an artistic concept
that came to me in June 2016.
The legendary Viking
warrior women who
rose to the challenge when faced
with setbacks and adversity 
have not only inspired the artwork ​
featured in this exhibition, 
​they also personify my
determination to overcome the
​hardships of this past year. ​

​“Our whole lives are just stories." -Lagertha Shieldmaiden (from Vikings)

​“Shieldmaiden” is a homage
to lost loved ones
and marks the end of an era
in my life as well as
​celebrating a new chapter.

Welcome to share this rite of passage with me🎨​

​“Don't look back, you're not going that way.”​ -Ragnar Lothbrok (from Vikings)

PS: Not even a Shieldmaiden can
go it alone and she needs to rest &
recuperate after the battle is over. 
Without major reinforcements 
this exhibit would not
​have been possible.
