3 quotes from Frida - A Biography of Frida Kahlo

At the core of her work, Frida Kahlo continuously grappled with her own identity—"I paint myself because I am so often alone and because I am the subject I know best."
Frida's art was a mirror reflecting her pain and passions: "I suffered two grave accidents in my life. One in which a metal handrail pierced my spine... The other accident is Diego."
Her defiance of cultural norms and personal struggles articulated her unique perspective: "I never paint dreams or nightmares. I paint my own reality."
