about the artwork

Exposed is a raw and evocative mixed media piece that emerged from upcycled art paper, transforming into a visceral meditation on womanhood and purpose. Stripped of identity beyond her bare breasts, the faceless, bodiless form confronts the viewer with an unsettling question—are women valued for more than mere entertainment in a world shaped by the dominant species? Layers of texture and emotion bleed through the composition, reflecting both vulnerability and defiance. This work stands as both a critique and a reclamation, demanding introspection on the roles imposed upon women and the space they are allowed to occupy beyond the gaze.
