MANIFEST

Women's production of unpaid labor in the private sphere, on the grounds of gender, the separation of the inside of the house as a private space and the outside of the house as a public space, and their biological characteristics; On the other hand, it gains a political meaning with the active participation of men in life and politics in the public sphere. The fact that the private sphere is on the edge of life and out of politics weakens women and increases gender inequality; therefore the private/domain is political. In my photographs in this exhibition, I tried to show how women today gain power in their private spheres as a result of the women's struggle throughout history, by making the photographs look like oil paintings, with a chaotic artistic reality.
