“WE WANTED TO PAY TRIBUTE TO ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC FEMALES IN HISTORY. OVER THE YEARS MARY HAS BECOME SORT OF THE IDEAL. THE WAY SHE HAS BEEN DEPICTED SHOWS A VERY LIMITED SIDE OF BEAUTY. YOU ALMOST FORGET SHE WAS HUMAN. HISTORY IS BUILT ON GREAT WOMAN WHO ACCOMPLISHED GREAT THINGS. WHERE INSPIRED BY THEM BECAUSE OF THEIR HUMANITY. THAT WAS OUR GOAL, TO SHOW A GLIMPSE OF HUMANITY. WHEN YOU REMOVE THE BARRIERS OF TIME AND CULTURE YOU START TO SEE THE REAL WOMAN. MARY WAS SO MUCH MORE THAN THE QUITE VIRGIN WE HAVE LIMITED HER TOO. MARY WAS A WOMAN THAT CHOSE TO BE STRONG, TO GO AGAINST THE CULTURE OF HER TIME AND IF SHE HAD FAITH, IF SHE BELIEVED, WE NEED TO ASK OURSELVES, WHY NOT US?”
“WHEN YOU REMOVE THE BARRIERS OF TIME AND CULTURE, YOU START TO SEE THE REAL WOMAN”
“GOD HAS SHAPED THIS WORLD THROUGH ALL DIFFERENT TYPES OF PEOPLE. DESPITE OUR GENDER, SKIN, OR BELIEF, ONE THING WE HAVE IN COMMON IS OUR HUMANITY. NONE ARE GREATER THAN THE CAUSES WE FIGHT FOR. MARY MADE A CHOICE. ITS THE GREATEST THING THAT DEFINES HER OR ANY WOMAN. SHE MADE A CHOICE.”
