Yesterday this installation opened in Vienna.
Artist Peresta Dika wrote about this installation that made a fuss and touched the world's opinion.
This artistic installation is addressed to innocent women who, although they have experienced such torture, even today, in many cases, feel neglected by family and close society generally “ - it has written on its account.
They feel not only pain and war, but they feel guilty for such fate”.
On the other hand, Dika wrote that artist Xhafa-Mripa represents the triumph of these women.
These clothes, which, since they are suspended, are intended for the viewer to bathe money, further show the spiritual purity of these women, who felt contaminated by the sexual violence exerted on them. Artist Xhafa-Mripa presents their clean, washed, and hanging garments to dry. She wants this object to help women who have suffered this kind of violence feel relieved by the concern they have carried so far “ - she has written on Facebook.
