In my paintings, I focus on socially filtered women. This theme is rooted in my hypnotherapy to see my previous life as a trafficked geisha girl. Since this experience, I wanted to spotlight female human trafficked victims and fix this global issue.
In “Children of Aphrodite”, I painted trafficked children’s mental journeys. The left girl represents her ignorance of the world. She is just happily holding her synthetic wig for her work. Then I wanted to show her transformation after knowing her world better. The baby presents their early pregnancy and the Column shows male authority, with the scratch at the bottom indicating a desire to break it down.
