"I chose to paint Cristina Scabbia because I listened to Lacuna Coil regularly as a teen. Their dark, gothic style spoke to my rebellious spirit as I struggled to find my place in the world. Their music and lyrics validated thoughts and feelings that I had that others dismissed. Cristina's career is inspiring to me. Claiming space as a woman in a male-dominated industry is no easy feat, and Cristina provides a powerful example of how to embody that space confidently and unapologetically." - Maxine Thirteen
