WOMEN'S MOTO EXHIBIT
the project

The Women's Motorcycle Exhibition was created to document the new wave of modern female motorcyclists. The goal is to reveal the brave, courageous and beautiful women that live to ride. The show is a vehicle which promotes a new perception of female empowerment and inspires an independence and liberation through motorcycling. The Women's Motorcycle Exhibition is a traveling show. It hopes to help discover and present female riders from all different communities, riding backgrounds, styles, and influence connectivity among riders from these different areas. It aims to change the way women are perceived not only in the motorcycle world but society in general. The Women's Moto Exhibit invites different communities and venues to host the photo exhibit to aid in this discovery. The show hopes to promote and present, the freedom, independence, excitement and personalities’ of “the born to be free” woman motorcyclists.
