Лучи света проходят через граненый графин цветного стекла, бросая живописную тень. Размер с паспарту 40х50 см. Картина покрыта жидким стеклом для защиты от ультрафиолета, влажности и пыли, а также для придания яркости краскам и глубины изображения.
In this painting, a faceless woman belongs to a Pushtun family, her hands tightly bound by strands of the flowers. The twisted and constrained baby breaths represent the untold aspirations and wishes of Pashtun women, restricted by cultural constrains imposed upon them. The tightly compressed hands indicate that these women have their desires and wants in several aspects of life. Nevertheless, these wishes remain unheard, unseen and are given minimal consideration within the male dominated community. The unexpressed and unseen wants of Pashtun women are buried behind the cultural restrictions that put a veil over the voices and aspirations. This painting serves as a reminder of the struggle faced by countless women, their dreams and aspirations are suppressed by the tight grip of cultural limitations.
