Q&A with Dio Hadley

What inspired you to create this piece?

I had just gotten my oil changed by myself for the first time and instead of just changing my oil, they also told me that everything was wrong with my car and I had to spend thousands of dollars to fix everything. I got a second opinion and more than half of the things I needed "replaced" don't need replaced for a few more years.

What motivates you, or inspires your art?

Usually a very specific experience gives me the inspiration for a whole new idea. Getting my oil changed, or reading an article about the history of the word "hysteria" (very interesting by the way) will out of no where give me this inspiration for a new piece.

We need to be loud about how legislation is harming women.

Why is this movement important to you?

Giving women and feminine presenting people a voice is so crucial in the midst of Idaho's current political climate. We need to be loud about how the legislation is harming women.
