Frida Kahlo
These designs are adaptations from Frida Kahlo paintings. Frida was
a noteworthy Mexican artist (July 6, 1907 – July 13, 1954). Because of
a serious injury suffered by a trolley car, she spent much of her adult life
in bed, gazing at a mirror on the ceiling. She paintied many self-portraits from the mirror.
These images often included elements from her large home and indoor gardens --including
the monkeys in her indoor garden, depicted in several of the bracelets. She is a strong feminist figure.
