Situated against a patterned and almost shimmering textile like background, the figure holds the gaze of the viewer. The human anatomy is modified here, with both hands completely covered with a metallic, bejeweled texture with sharp blades projecting out of it. This piece is a re-imagining of ornamentation on women’s bodies as weapons and explores ideas of resistance, strength and vulnerability.
