A series of rapes that occurred after the outbreak prompted me to speak up. I looked at some examples of historical rape paintings. Surprisingly! You could be excused for thinking that rape was a romantic, passionate, and dramatic affair that ultimately improved society if you looked at their canvases and thought about the stories behind them. And that left me with a question: Are we the most spammed humans in history?
In this painting, I set out to convey the sense of having to hide women's participation in a culture that celebrates the consumption of human flesh and the resulting censorship.
