Hi! My name is Sophi, and I'm raising funds to bring my art project, QUEEN, to Burning Man.

This sculpture is a tribute to midlife women, celebrating our power, wisdom, and the journey of becoming.

QUEEN is a reclining figure in an odalisque pose, with a pinwheel emerging from her head. Each blade of the pinwheel carries a phrase: I am 50+, I'm in my Power, I am Invisible, I give no Effs, I am Wise, I am Aging, Freedom from the Gaze, I am Becoming, I am You.

These words reflect the experiences, joy, and truths of women who are reaching their most powerful years.

The name QUEEN stands for Quantum Universal Epic Era Now!, transforming the narrative of aging into one of strength and celebration. This project is deeply personal to me, and I hope it will inspire others to see the beauty and power in every stage of life.

The funds raised will go directly toward materials and transportation to make QUEEN a reality at Burning Man. I'm inviting you to be part of this creative journey. Your encouragement and support would mean the world to me. Together, we can challenge cultural norms and celebrate the wisdom and power of women everywhere.
