In this cast iron sculpture, the artist confronts the lingering aftermath of sexual violence. The crumpled, discarded clothing symbolizes the profound sense of being used and devalued. The bra, folded over itself, and the twisted, exposed crotch of the underwear lay bare the raw reality of violation. The somber blue of the fabric evokes deep feelings of loss, sadness, and mourning. The partial rusting of the clothes reflects both physical abandonment and the mental decay that follows trauma. This piece starkly embodies the impact of such experiences, turning the visual language of clothing into a poignant commentary on the unseen wounds of sexual abuse.
