This painting is based on three photos of three girls from three countries: Iran, India and Nigeria. In too many countries, girls still do not have the right to go to school.
I have turned the heavy stone into a pile of books. All children – boys and girls – have the right to education.
The ballon represents that we all have the same right of being.
“Equality means more than passing laws. The struggle is really won in the hearts and minds of the community, where it really counts.” – Barbara Gittings

Andra Daans is a Dutch artist based in France, celebrated for her emotionally charged paintings that vividly explore the resilience of the human spirit through compelling storytelling. Her work is deeply influenced by her Dutch-Surinamese heritage, often focusing on the experiences of children and using techniques such as grisaille and raw umber washes to craft powerful narratives. Daans' subjects are typically portrayed in shades of gray or warm, earthy tones, frequently set against vibrant backgrounds or seamlessly integrated into their surroundings, highlighting broader themes of identity, culture, and shared humanity.
Daans' art engages with historical and societal issues, giving voice to those who are often overlooked. Her series on figures like Joseph Boulogne and Ota Benga are striking examples of her ability to weave personal and collective histories into her work. Additionally, her exploration of African patterns and symbols, inspired by her own family heritage, adds cultural depth to her pieces.
Recognized as an Akoun-certified artist, Andra Daans has exhibited her work internationally, with her pieces held in private collections worldwide, including that of notable collector Ed Gordon. Through her art, Daans invites viewers to deeply engage with the stories she tells, fostering empathy and a greater understanding of our interconnectedness.
