Price: POA
The Audacity explores the simple yet powerful act of a woman meeting another’s gaze. Three women stand together, two avert their eyes, while the third looks directly at the viewer. In many communities, eye contact from women is considered disrespectful, shameless, or defiant, reducing even the act of looking into someone’s eyes to a form of disobedience.
The woman who returns the viewer’s gaze embodies courage and self possession. Her unwavering stare becomes an act of quiet resistance, challenging the social expectations that demand women remain unseen, unheard, and submissive. Through reclaimed textiles, the work reclaims not only discarded material but also the right of women to be visible, acknowledged, and unafraid to meet the world on their own terms.
