As founder of 4000 Years for Choice, Heather Ault created a dynamic visual art series devoted to re-visioning the historical and cultural narrative of abortion and contraception. Since the project’s initial launch in 2009, Heather has presented her artwork and research at art galleries, national conferences, university campuses, and reproductive health clinics across the country. Her work has been written about in the Huffington Post, New York Daily News, Bust Magazine, and many other blogs. Heather is a board member of the Abortion Conversation Project and also serves as Social Media Coordinator for the Abortion Care Network. She holds a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Graphic Design and Master of Fine Arts in New Media and is based in Urbana, Illinois.
“I am committed to creating positive, empowering visual images, history, and language about reproductive health, rights, and justice on behalf of the millions of women like me – women who have had abortions. This is my story. This is my passion. This is my life.”
