In WOMEN, LIFE, FREEDOM - I, a pair of hand carved wood scissors become a frame for a painting of Persion pop star, Donya Dadrasan, cutting her hair and an image of a flower embroidered with Iranian human hair. The work is in direct response to the 2022 arrest and beating death of Mahsa Amini in Iran. After her horrific murder, women began cutting their hair publicly to protest the morality laws and brutality used in the oppression of women.
