Mixed Media on Brushed Metal | 17 x 17 in | One-of-a-Kind
This piece speaks to the universality of the feminine battle—the truth that strength and suffering, courage and quiet endurance, are woven through the lives of women across time. Created over 20 hours on brushed metal, the work blends permanent inks, metallic accents, and layered leafing to construct a portrait where the woman’s face is deliberately concealed. Her anonymity is intentional: she is every woman who has ever borne weight, carried wounds, or stepped into armor not by choice, but by necessity.
Her steel helmet obscures her identity, suggesting that the stories of women often remain unseen even as their strength holds entire worlds together. Blood marks her chest and shoulder—symbolic traces of the battles she has endured, both spoken and unspoken. Leafing overlays shimmer with shifting light, adding a sense of dignity, resilience, and hushed beauty to the brutality she has faced.
The brushed metal surface reflects light like memory, offering the viewer different interpretations depending on angle—mirroring how each woman’s story holds layers others never fully witness. She does not stand as a victim or a warrior, but as a truth: the quiet power of the feminine spirit when tested, tried, and transformed.
A singular work in the New Eve series, she is both a mirror and a reminder that bravery often looks like surviving what no one else sees.
