"In the Middle of the Darkness be a colorful Frida...
The world is going through so much pain, violence, fear, anxiety that needs more of Frida Khalo in it. Frida Khalo was a fearless woman with incredible strength, created through the pain.
The physical and emotional pain was a constant visitor to her. Through her childhood she suffers from discrimination for been a mestizo kid, later on, she got polio and a car accident left her paralytic. Her emotions didn’t dim her spirit, on the contrary, it made her strong and beautiful which beauty was reflected in a colorful way trough her paints. She literally took her hardships, physical, and emotional pain, and made wonders with it. Instead of building self-pity, she built wonderful pieces of art.
This is why Frida was our inspiration for this shoot. We need a bit more of Frida's spirit. We wanted to encourage others to turn our strength and emotions into colors and create something beautiful in the unlikeliest of times. We must be inspired to make a beautiful legacy for ourselves."
