Description

This collection, “I am a woman”, explores how language shapes our identity. Each piece depicts a woman with a wire mask that reflects her inner state of mind: power, insecurity, fear, love, etc. These masks are woven by any external concepts that affect humans, such as social norms and expectations that they internalize, country, family and so on. But they are not part of their faces and can change as they create new memories and experiences.

The Iron Lady represents a woman who rejects these constraints and creates her own destiny. She does not have any broken fragments around her, unlike the other pieces.

This piece also relates to the Metaverse: a virtual reality where we can create our own avatars and worlds. Some serious changes are going to happen to human lives as technology advances. Our physical world becomes less important and our consciousness becomes more valuable. The Iron Lady’s body is dark grey, while her head is bright silver, showing this contrast.
