On July 21st, 2016, New York based artist Andra Douglas, debuted Phizog – Faces & Expressions of the IWFL, an exhibit of her overpainted prints in mixed media on bamboo paper, at the Independent Women’s Football League’s National Championship in Charlotte, NC.
Defined by the courageous spirit of the 100+ women’s tackle football teams throughout the world, and inspired by the diversity of the players, Andra offers this work as a tribute to the female football players of all leagues and ages fueled by the force of their convictions.
Providing refuge from the brazen commercialism of the NFL, are poetic expressions, depicting the close-up emotions of the athletes and coaches whose often impenetrable eyes and inscrutable countenance give little away.
