Just as angels are invisible beings destined to serve and comfort us, so too are those women of a certain age who in every generation labour unnoticed for the benefit of others in their communities. They cook, wash, mend, iron, dust and pray—four-letter words to most of us. My artwork admonishes us to look up, see them, and show some respect.
