Power of a Voiceless Woman-Art Review

I want my art to start conversations on taboo topics that society considers “untouchable” because of traditional codes which justify gender-based injustice, inequality and oppression. 

My intention in doing a work on body language which arrests our gaze. I want people who look at my portraits, to actually meet the eyes of my women and truly see them, so that they, in turn, can also “see themselves”. 

This consciousness of self is what gives full power and control, and identifies a leader. My women watch you. They make you look at them. They have a certain presence. We live in a society where the woman is invisible, and voiceless. 

Society claims to know better what is good for women, than what she thinks is good for herself. Nobody asks for her opinion. Sometimes she even has to negotiate her humanity and the integrity of her body. . 
My art reminds us that we can decide to have a choice. We must not deny our own existence by helping others. My art questions reality and the immutability of our perception of reality. My art challenges our senses, and aesthetic reading of this perception of reality. I want to question it, disturb it, and modify it through physical experimentation." - Moufouli Bello
