Original artwork description:

This oil painting on canvas is about resilience, quiet defiance, and the strength of women standing up to oppression. The cat—independent and mysterious—reflects a woman who holds her ground. She doesn’t face danger recklessly, but with calm, almost playful defiance.

The cyst gun and bullets hint at conflict, yet the cat stays relaxed, as if daring fate. The green silicone ball adds a touch of innocence and playfulness in the middle of tension.

I painted this during the protests in Georgia, inspired by the women who stood strong day and night, fighting for their future without fear. This painting is a tribute to their spirit.

Materials used:

oil colors, linseed oil
