Description
"Women in the Cage of Words" is a striking fusion of Persian calligraphy and miniature painting, symbolizing the historical suppression of women's voices. The Qajar-era women depicted have their mouths sealed by calligraphic elements, representing how language and tradition have been used to silence them. The structured geometric forms create a visual prison, while gold leaf reflects both historical grandeur and concealed oppression. The contrast of black, white, and orange highlights tension between silence and expression. One inverted face suggests a distorted perception of women's identity. This piece is a bold statement on restriction, resilience, and the power of unspoken words.
