"In the Sisterhood Series, the artist takes a stance against the image of woman shaped by masculine point of view that we see all the time in the media. The woman presented with an almost plasticized artificiality becomes commodified and loses its reality.The artist, who wants to emphasize the fragility and mortality of the body, wants to strengthen this feeling by using a sensitive and fragile material such as pencil. The body that we see in black and white in contrast to the vivid colors is fragile and doomed to disappear."
