Teen's painting of Mother Earth deemed too mature for school foyer

Skye Hunt's 'In Celebration of the Mother' was made for her school's Earth Day art show on April 21, 2023, but was moved to an art room because the board deemed it too 'mature.' "When you think 'earth,' you think 'women.' You think 'mother,'" the 17-year-old told CBC Radio's Ontario Morning. "I feel really happy, really ecstatic that I've had the reach that I have," she said. "Hopefully it's helped some women or some girls somewhere feel more confident in themselves and know they're beautiful, [that] every body is a beautiful body."
