S, Fridita

Aside from her powerful self-portraits, Mexican artist and feminist icon Frida Kahlo is perhaps most known for her unibrow, a purposeful statement rejecting stereotypes about what conventional beauty looks like. Kahlo was born to a German father of Hungarian descent and a Mexican mother of Spanish and Native American descent. Kahlo is a woman who experienced many happy times, but her life was filled with tragedy as well. Both of which led to her profound artwork. When looking at her work, one can be lost in a sea of emotions.  She is the subject of today's Facial Hair Friday.
