I am EMPOWERED is a collection of 5 unique digital artworks by Power of Women x Man City, released as a time-limited open edition for International Women's Day 2023, with the proceeds split equally between Power of Women and Manchester City's official charity, City in the Community.
I am EMPOWERED is more than just art collection. It is a message to the next generation of women and girls. A message that says: I am courageous, I am confident, I am resilient, I am proud of who I am, and I am powerful enough to pursue my dreams, whatever they may be. Here is the inspiration behind the 5 artworks:
I am COURAGE: I am dedicated to pursuing my goals relentlessly, no matter how difficult the journey may be. When obstacles arise, I am determined to overcome them with grit and perseverance. I am COURAGE.
I am PROUD: I embrace my individuality and my unique qualities. I strive to be authentic and true to myself, even when it’s difficult to do so. I am PROUD of who I am.
I am RESILIENT: I embrace adversity and thrive on a challenge. I am not afraid to be knocked down in the toughest moments. I always rise again with my head held high and charge forward with more fire than ever before. I am RESILIENT.
I am FEARLESS: I am inspired by the ambition of my team, the passion of our players and the unity of our fans. I am brave. I am FEARLESS. And I am empowered to pursue my dreams.
I am POWERFUL: I am the energy pulsing through the stands. I am committed on and off the pitch. I am a trailblazer with a burning desire to be the best I can be. I am POWERFUL.
