A State of Womanhood is an ode to the body that creates, carries, and nurtures. Through nudity adorned with colorful paint and ceramic forms, the female body becomes a living canvas—playful, raw, and deeply intentional.

The work lingers on the parts of us most often censored yet most essential to womanhood and motherhood, honoring them not as objects, but as sites of strength, intimacy, and origin. This series invites the viewer to witness the body in its full truth: seen, celebrated, and unhidden.
