Sacrificial conformity

This work seeks to expose the social structure in which women are expected to be “beautiful.”
The high heel, often celebrated as a symbol of glamour and elegance, is also an object that imposes strain and pain on the body.
With its thorn-studded form, this shoe magnifies that duality and materialises the “sacrifice demanded for beauty.”
It questions how we become bound by the gaze of others, and how, at times, we submit to pain in order to comply with beauty.
