Unravelling

acrylic with photograph, collage papers, string
Size: 20 x 20

This piece speaks to the stark differences between women of privilege and women who are oppressed. On one side is a woman looking at her reflection in the mirror. She’s proudly, defiantly exposed. On the other side is a woman covered and barely visible, except for her expressive eyes peeking out from her face covering. The strings represent being tied and bound, as in being held back, rights stripped. But the strings are also there to show the bond women have universally, which joins them together in a common thread of femaleness- dreams, hopes, desires, need of community and empathy.
