For many years I lived and worked in Coventry, this gave me the opportunity to investigate the story of Lady Godiva, I decided to take her as a female icon and transform her from being a Saxon Lady to a 20 century woman.
This series of paintings reflects my concern for feminist issues, I have taken Godiva as I female icon because although a lot has been written about her it is not certain that the histories are truth or myth. Nothing was written of Godiva until 300 years after her death, so the tales are not too reliable, This allowed me to invent new visual myths that reference to women today and their role in society.
