International Women’s Day comes around each year and always falls on March 8th. Celebrating women all over the world for their strength, IWD is a day to celebrate the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women around the globe and is also a significant focal point in the women’s rights movement.
To celebrate International Women’s Day this year, we have put together a round-up of the best empowering art prints. We all love a positive quote, and there’s no better way to invoke a positive vibe than to display these quotes and mantras around your home – and a female-empowerment quote or art print makes the perfect way to celebrate IWD this year (especially because we should be celebrating ourselves every damn day).
Seeing a positive quote or affirmation when you wake up can really instil a sense of positivity before you embark on the day ahead, which is why placing a positive quote in your bedroom is a great way to decorate your sacred space. Art prints also look great arranged in the style of a gallery wall in your living room or hallway, or even as stand-alone solo print features. Prints are a wonderful way to brighten up your home while giving yourself a dose of positivity in the process.
Below are 8 hand-picked prints that we believe empower and inspire – all from independent artists.
