About The Artwork

“Wife and warrior” is made of recycled plastic foil I used from packing material (from food, drinks, sweets). I wrapped it around wooden sticks in order to form a mat that you can also roll together. I saw something similar when I traveled to South-Africa several years ago and was fascinated by the way people used simple things and created artworks (mostly for tourists). That is also why I choose an African style and theme for this creation. “Wife and warrior” wants to express that you can be a wife or mother on the one side, but also a warrior on the other side. Society often suggests women it that they have to be one thing and cannot be the other. During my Africa travels I experienced that African women are very strong fighters and that they have to manage a lot. Therefore, my artwork is also an homage to those women.

Lena Snow is a fine artist based in Germany who currently has her studio in a small town on the edge of the Black Forest (near Baden-Baden) where she is working on her latest artworks while keeping in touch with nature. Lena is specialized in female portraiture and sensual art with her main medium being paper. She earned a Master's degree at the University of Mannheim and Karlsruhe. ​ "I explore various aspects of femininity and female identity in my paintings. My inspiration are personal stories of women I encountered, but also female characters in mythology, film, and literature. They are a new, powerful, and emancipated approach of one’s identity and sexuality, and at the same time they stand for empowerment for all women. For a long time only men have painted women, neglecting their personal stories of ambivalence, trauma and multifaceted nature, but it is time that women change the narrative and capture their unique stories by contributing to a new, empowered expression of elevated femininity." Lena has exhibited internationally, and has been published in several art and lifestyle magazines around the world. The award-winning artist is also editor of the international art magazine Goddessarts Magazine.
