Making over 1,000 jumps, she became the first woman to parachute from an airplane and the first person to perform a premeditated freefall. Her daring spirit and unwavering resolve helped pave the way for women in adventure and aviation.

Tiny Broadwick is a name synonymous with courage and sky-high determination. In an era when the skies were uncharted territory, Tiny fearlessly soared into history as a pioneering parachutist. Her spirit, boundless as the heavens themselves, challenged conventions and inspired generations to take flight, both in the air and in their dreams.

With each daring leap, Tiny Broadwick painted a vivid canvas of resilience, bravery, and a relentless pursuit of boundless horizons. Her legacy remains an enduring testament to the indomitable human spirit, forever celebrated in the annals of aviation history.

Orbital Echoes (Tiny's Flight Through The Skies) was created by constructing a hand-cut collage using female photographic portraiture and handmade costumes, combined with photograms of antique glass slides of the earth and planets, illustrations of parachutes, hot air balloons and lunar cycles.
