An Anonymous Battle

This body of work explores the role of the Muslim woman in a changing Islamic society in order to grasp an understanding of her life behind the veil. No longer tolerating the suppression of sexuality in the Islamic society, a Revolution has emerged from behind the veils in many Islamic countries. Society's fight over what is right and wrong, associated to the domain of both tradition and modernity, has shaped women's mind over time. A new generation of mostly educated women, having become aware of their rights and powers gifted to them through a glance into modernity, have jumpstarted an ever growing struggle between tradition and modernity in many Islamic countries. These young generations are struggling to find a way of reacting to the power held over them, grasping to find any form of freedom they can behind the facade of everyday life. The Islamic laws have influenced the mind and body of the woman in today’s Islamic society, who is now demanding her equality in gender roles and sexuality in order to build a new, impartial and balanced world for future generations in the Islamic world.
