Picture


 
Many people are surprised in our modern age by the harsh lifestyles that continue to confront some women and force them into a deep depression. They are taught to be submissive in cultures dominated by patriarchal governments and households. Painting is my way to express my emotion to the real world. I saw many women suffer emotionally as they are separated from their societies and homes.  I want to shed a light on women who tend to be forgotten and left in a deep and dark corner of society. All of my work encompasses psychological aspects of these suffering women's lives. My paintings are not only my voice, but also a summary of my life experiences. Experiencing war, protest, and revolution has shaped my ideology in painting and life.
