Honoring Women's Achivements
Now Is the Time is about a collective sisterhood. Says the artist, "When I read over achievement, I can imagine all the barriers that were overcome. Today we are standing on the shoulders of many remarkable women.
The text gets smaller as time recedes, as if to say there are so many who will never be counted or credited who have taken us this far. The accomplishments of these women are like grains of sand, so numerous but they have also been invisible in history."
