“More than one in three”
The 23nd part in a series of art works dedicated to powerful women.
“More than one in three” is an installation and the image of a powerful woman, firmly grounded like a tree with deep roots. The installation is illuminated by a theme that is socially relevant.
The light flowing through the folds of her long dress refers to “More than one in three,” pointing to more than one in three women.
This light shines in two colors: a pale, almost white blue and an intense red. The red light, captured in glass, symbolizes the more than one in three women in the Netherlands who will experience physical or sexual violence in their lifetime.
o.o. mixed media, wood, bark and glass and light.
