Armour of the Silenced: A testament against Femicide
Armour of the Silenced: A testament against Femicide
A woman sits solemnly, wearing a powerful sculpture crafted from bullets, can tabs, and parched encasings—a haunting commentary on the brutality of femicide and violence against women. Each bullet represents the enduring scars left by violence, while the tabs of cans symbolize the disposability of it. Dried parchment, worn and fragile, echoes silenced stories of countless lives affected by these crimes. The sculpture envelops her body as both armour and burden, urging viewers to confront the reality of these injustices and demand change. This evocative piece transforms objects of destruction into symbols of resilience and remembrance.
