The Melbourne exhibition celebrating women who changed history

Thirty-five artists have created 35 original portraits of trailblazing, history-making women to raise funds for those fighting for gender equality in Cambodia and Nepal.

The exhibition celebrates the courage and contributions of women from lauded Mexican artist Frida Kahlo to Pakistani teenager Malala Yousafzai, as well as women much closer to home, including the first female Victorian Governor Linda Dessau AM and transgender Australian model Andreja Pejić. Take a look at some of the work below.
