CURATED BY LEE SHARROCK
Lee Sharrock is a curator, writer, global creative publicist and sometime artist based in London.
“My curation of the International Women’s Day AOAP auction is themed around Boudicca, Queen of the ancient British Iceni tribe. Boudica, meaning ‘Victorious Woman’, comes from Brythonic *boudi 'victory, win' and kā meaning 'having’. The brief I gave the artists was to create artworks inspired by Boudicca’s image, spirit or strength, depicting women from history of modern-day Warrior women who continue the fight for gender equality, independence and freedom, or women who have made a contribution to society in a public way, or in a more personal way on a family or friend level. It’s been so inspiring to see how each artist has interpreted the theme, some in abstract and some in more figurative ways.” Curator Lee Sharrock
