Oppression seems to have rendered woman hapless but that does not take away her beauty or wit. This sculpture makes us wonder how long will women give in to blows. Emancipation happens but what we need is a day when female rights will be but natural without having the need to be stressed upon!
The metal sculpture reasserts our belief that woman kind is born steadier than men. She is a woman and that does not subject her to slavery of any kind. She is a liberalist, a feminist and knows when to speak her mind. Her wisdom has indeed come out of pain.
J. Paul Getty Museum and Getty Center in Los Angeles has unique sculptures that make you wonder a lot. The lady in metal seems to be conscious about her surroundings though she is carefree about society at large. This alone is reflected in the stern yet casual hand gesture. If only we could learn to avoid behaving according to expectations!
