Tears & Tulle Talk

Podcast Episode 006 The Tears & Tulle Movement Season 1, Week 2, Laura Hollick!

Laura's thoughts on wearing the original skirt:

I chose to wear the skirt in a sea of rainbow to make it feel like a dream. ⁣ ⁣ I believe the most empowering thing we can do for women at this time is dream a new dream about what it means to be a woman. ⁣ ⁣ No longer do we need to be the prop or property of others. We can claim ownership of ourselves.⁣ ⁣ The new dream I'm imagining is one where women value themselves for being themselves. I see us awaking a new chapter of feminine sovereignty. ⁣ ⁣ (as seen on Laura’s website that's listed below) ⁣>⁣ This year I started mentoring with Von Wong, the Artist Activist. Through our sessions, I realized that I want to use my gift of art, creative expression and insight to make real change in the world.⁣ ⁣ At the same time I was invited to be part of a creative project called Tears & Tulle, as seen in this image above. The concept for the project created by Gina Bell, is to empower women’s unique expression. She shipped a rainbow tulle skirt around the world and asked women to do photos with the skirt to express female empowerment. I was so delighted to be invited to be part of this project. ⁣ ⁣ When I received the rainbow tulle skirt I wanted to create an image that reflected that female empowerment is currently in the dream state where we can literally dream a new world into being.⁣ ⁣ Art as Activism has taught me that art has power to reach people in ways beyond logic.⁣
