LADY PINK (Sandra Fabara - Américaine)
Née en 1964
« Quand j’ai commencé à peindre, dans les années 70, les femmes essayaient toujours de prouver par elles-mêmes qu’elles pouvaient faire tout ce que les hommes faisaient. Le mouvement féministe était de plus en plus fort et, en tant qu’adolescente, je pense que ça m’a influencé. Sans m’en rendre compte j’étais devenue une jeune féministe. Plus les mecs disaient « vous ne pouvez pas faire ça », plus je devais prouver qu’ils avaient tord. Je devais le faire pour toutes mes soeurs qui me regardaient…Nous défendons nos oeuvres avec nos poings et notre courage. Quand vous avez des gars qui vous manquent de respect, vous allez le devoir de leur donner une leçon, sinon ils vont continuer à vous marcher dessus. Je suis désolée, mais c’est la façon dont ça fonctionne la-bas, et ce n’est pas facile. Mais cela reflète également ce qu’est le monde de l’art en général : 80% d’hommes blancs. Alors, vous devez vous battre bec et ongles, crier et supporter, être entendue et être grande pour obtenir le respect »
