Frida Kahlo: Making Her Self Up (16th June -14th November 2018)

I went to the V & A 's exhibition 'Frida Kahlo-Making Her Self Up' last week and came out feeling inspired and very moved. 

I've always considered appearance and adornment to be an art form as well as an instrument of communication. Seeing this wonderful artist use these things as tools to convey her history, politics and the person that she wished to be seen as rather than the person whose gender, race and illness dictated the way that she should appear, reinforced this belief.
