Original artwork description:
“My cherries are in danger. I fear they might get crushed by men’s feet, sometimes I discover they weren’t real cherries at the first place.”
Part of the collection “pleasure is not allowed”
In my dreams, subconscious images emerge repeatedly, revolving around a common axis, the oppression of female sexuality. These images, whose meaning was initially hidden from me, were interpreted through the process of psychoanalysis and took their place as personal symbols in my visual vocabulary. For example, after 15 years of painting sharks, I discovered during a session that the shark is an authority which forbids the expression of sexual desire. Cherries, on the other hand, which appear often in my artwork, are the desire itself, an object also included in other personal stories.
