In a patriarchal world there is a set separation between femininity and masculinity. In this body of work, I chose to explore the mixture between the two concepts. To me, there is no pure masculine male and feminine female. There is only the idea of being a loving and strong human being. It is ok to be a woman who strives to be independent and confident and a man who desires to be vulnerable and empathetic. My illustrations depict the word femininity in various contexts, from race and ethnicity to pure imagination and gender identity. Femininity and masculinity are concepts that are naturally woven together.
