WARRIOR WOMEN
Warrior Women is a contemporary sculpture series by Delia Dante exploring female strength, resilience, and identity through powerful mixed-media forms. Combining enameled copper, welded steel, and sculptural elements, each piece redefines the concept of armor—shifting it from protection to empowerment and personal narrative.
DELIA DANTE HELMET
Born from the absence of women in the history of armor and combat—and their frequent misrepresentation—this series reclaims armor as a form of empowerment. Warrior Women challenges these narratives, offering a visual language rooted in equality, respect, and resilience.
MARIEL HEMMINGWAY HELMET
The second helmet is inspired by Mariel Hemingway, recognizing her strength, advocacy, and commitment to empowering others. Together, these works inaugurate the Warrior Women series, establishing a framework for future pieces honoring women whose lives and work embody resilience and courage.
