Women flying and riding. Women playing tennis and ride bicycles. Women drinking and demonstrates. Women living life. Since 2019 that has been the theme of Mie Olise Kjærgaard’s colorful and often fabulous paintings. Her work has been grounded in thoughts on women’s life – historically and in the art. Now Mie Olise sums up her work in recent years with the book publication Disobedient Muses exposes at the same time a selection of her sources of inspiration. In the book is Mie Olise’s paintings thus accompanied by photos of some of history’s groundbreaking women, Among other things, the suffragettes; women who threw the corset and sat cross-legged on the horse.

The book is supported by the New Carlsberg Foundation and published by Aftryk.
