The plaster sculpture Haunted sits on a seperate metal stand, that is 70 cm high.
"Pillows usually reflect a moment of serenity and comfort. They can take pressure but always retain their softness. I let the pillows harden and become stiff, unable to revert to its normal state. I used my own body and performance to leave imprints on the piece, which I made using construction plaster and a used pillow case acting as a mold."
- Afra Alsuwaidi on Haunted
My work challenges these notions to uncover the authentic experience of women, provide them with a voice so often silenced, share their stories with audiences internationally and most importantly, empower women around the world.
