Google Celebrates International Women’s Day With Doodle
Category: Tech News
Google is celebrating the 2022 International Women’s Day (IWD) with a doodle
of an animated slideshow that shows a glimpse into the everyday lives of women
across different cultures.
With the theme “BreakTheBias”, today’s
IWD doodle was illustrated by Doodle Art Director, Thoka Maer and produced by
Lindsay Elgin.
The art shows a transition from a mother working
from home to a motorcycle mechanic teaching her skills to the next generation.
Each illustration depicted in today’s Doodle is connected by the
common thread of how women show up for themselves, their families, and their
communities.
Maer said “I really hope that women feel seen and
valued for whatever they’ve been doing and are doing right now. Getting up in
the morning and getting through the day.
“Doing the dishes, holding on to the job or letting go of it, taking care of
themselves and others. Those very basic things have been a huge piece of work
since the beginning of the pandemic.
“I want all women to be able to truly choose the lives they want to live and
receive all the respect they deserve. A stay at home mom makes the whole world
for her children. A CEO makes for innovation and keeps her employees motivated
and happy.
“The vagabond artist delights strangers and indulges in her freedom. Driving a
truck, fighting for women’s rights, going to school, or making a meal. We all
wake up in the morning and we all have a purpose, big or small. It all
matters” she added.
