About the Item
This painting is an artistic provocation that challenges stereotypes and gender biases.
The use of the chicken as a metaphor for a woman refers to a derogatory stereotype that associates women with frivolity or limitation. However, placing immaculate white chickens on a bookshelf creates an ironic contrast, emphasizing the injustice of such perceptions.
It is a form of artistic protest that urges the viewer to reconsider the entrenched language of discrimination.
The red background adds emotional tension, heightening the sharpness of the theme. The work not only reflects the problem but also confronts those who consciously or unconsciously perpetuate such stereotypes.
The painting plays with the simplicity of form, the vibrancy of color, and the depth of ideas, prompting reflection on how society perceives female identity and its connection to knowledge, culture, and personal freedom.
