About the Item

Іn the work “Empty Function — Not a Hanger,” the artist reflects on female subjectivity and embodiment. The empty hangers symbolize the social roles that women are often “hung on”: convenient, beautiful, quiet, obedient. In contrast stands the red chair — a place of strength — and the hen, a living being that calmly and confidently occupies the space she deserves. The empty hangers behind her represent a world that has lost its need for authenticity, seeking only comfort. This is a visual statement: a woman is not a function, not a hanger, not a thing. This painting participated in a solo exhibition at the Museum of the Ukrainian Book in Odessa, Ukraine
