Fi Marks dipinge storie di donne tratte dalla storia e dalla letteratura. Le donne sono state e continuano ad essere messe a tacere, lei dà loro voce! Non ricerca solo queste donne, ma anche i tessuti dell’epoca. Questi tessuti e i loro disegni, circondano le donne, nel loro ambiente e nei loro vestiti. Ogni dettaglio è dipinto a mano ed è una meraviglia da vedere.
