Liberation Red<\/strong>, wax on lipstick container, 0.75 x 3 x 0.75 inches. 2023<\/p>

Part of the Fistick<\/em> Collection
Liberation Red<\/em> transforms a familiar cosmetic object into a compact symbol of resistance and strength. The work confronts the ways femininity is both aestheticized and controlled, while reclaiming it as a site of power and defiance.
Part of the Fistick<\/em> collection, the piece draws its name and color from social and political contexts marked by struggle and urgency. Liberation Red is dedicated to the courageous women of Iran, honoring their resilience in the face of gender violence and systemic oppression. Through minimal material intervention, the work links everyday objects to broader conversations around gender equality, bodily autonomy, and collective resistance.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
