"Escape"
Concept
"Escape" is meant to portray how men control the image of women in society. Men paint women how they want to see them, treating them as objects and defining their places in society. The paintings on the wall show the sadness of the women who have become confined to their roles, meanwhile the woman currently being painted is reaching her hand out of the painting, showing a desire to escape the boundaries she is being placed in.
