This digital artwork portrays a tired women stuck in the mirror listening to all sort of sexist phrases women often hear in real life. She's stuck in the mirror because the other side of the mirror is just a mere reflection and reflections are not real people, implying that all the sexist phrases should not be accepted in reality by real people. The other women is flourishing and present in real life refusing the phrases, scratching them out, and fighting for her rights. These are part of the issues women face in Lebanon and globally, there are plenty of other issues and they are as equally as important. On the other side there are some famous women present: princess Diana, Malala Yousafzai, Frida Kahlo, rosa parks, who each in their own way inspired, empowered, and lead. At the end, we must be strong to fight the gender inequality to eliminate it in our reality. Sexist phrases coming from anybody will not stop us from being stronger and more empowered to defend our rights and fight for gender equality.
