Fé (Portuguese for faith or belief) is an artist collective that aims to create time and space to foster critical dialogue and equip the next generation of female artists.

Why we exist

Inspired by Virginia Woolf’s seminal essay, A Room of One’s Own (1929), where Woolf reflects on the potential accomplishments of women if afforded the same opportunities as men, asserting that the foundation for creative expression lies in economic independence and a room of one’s own. The collective provides the space for female artists to share the artist's lived experiences. The collective also addresses other barriers, such as the historical limitation of access to education and restricted social propriety, through ongoing life drawing sessions, dinner parties, and artist retreats.
