This series attempts to uplift the voices of people who have typically been left out of the stories of our collective past. Set in  the belief in the equality of people of all genders, races and more; these pieces readdress these ancient stories with a set of values aimed at dismantling gender inequality and the structures that uphold it.

There are multiple origin stories for Lilith but the most popular is that she was the first wife of Adam. Lilith believed that she and Adam were created equal, both from the dust of the earth, and she left the garden of Eden in order to gain her independence.
