This sculpture stands as a powerful symbol, embodying the struggle for women’s rights in Iran since 1979. It serves as a reminder of the deliberate denial of fundamental rights, with a focus on the courageous women who defied the hijab mandate. Each figure represents those who, by unveiling their hair, faced imprisonment and death. The intention is to keep this critical issue relevant, shedding light on the injustices imposed by the Islamic Republic of Iran. Through simple yet impactful forms, the sculpture narrates the unspoken stories and resilient spirit of Iranian women facing adversity in their quest for equality and freedom.
