Frida Kahlo

Greatness is a choice. I admire Frida Kahlo’s dedication to her creative vision, refusing to modify her artistic style for her clients. She turned to the arts in her teens after a terrible bus accident that fractured her spine and pelvis. Her parents brought her paints and an easel to use in bed to express her inner truth. This led to an incredible career that even saw Kahlo as the first Mexican Artist to be featured in the Louvre.

This 1938 Time Magazine shows her first press piece, albeit quite offensive by modern standards, introducing Kahlo not as herself, but rather as the wife of famed muralist Diego Rivera. The article can be seen below, forming the silhouette of her body. This artwork merges two of Kahlo’s most famous paintings, Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird with the Broken Column. Surrounding the image are words, phrases and locations important to Kahlo’s life that inspired future generations. Frida persisted, creating art despite a life of pain from her childhood injuries and romantic traumas.

This NFT brings to life the beauty that can come from such difficult times, with stars in here eyes and an immortal heart.
