“I believe that art is a powerful political tool to contribute to a better world, a world where equality between women and men can be possible.”

María María Acha-Kutscher, a 46-year-old artist based in Madrid, Spain, illustrated a series of well-known photos of women for a project she calls "Indignadas."

"The images of 'Indignadas' show empowered women in political action and also the female body as a support for the political message," Acha-Kutscher told BuzzFeed News.

"By transforming photographs into drawings, I immortalize these actions to show that social changes throughout history were made by women and men together."

The artist says her series is inspired by the aesthetics of pop art, comics, and political posters from the '70s.
