No One Likes Women Who Talk is the second part to my painting of the transformed first sin. In this painting, Eve has told the patriarch (or God) about Adam having raped her, but she is not believed and instead Adam’s words are taken over hers and she is found guilty of the crime and shamed, while her memories cloud the painting around her. This painting might be my late response to the victim-blaming sexual culture that is present not only in societal norms but even in the justice system and in healthcare regulations.

Painting made with cacao, coffee, acacia gum, chalk, red and yellow ochre, green earth and burnt umber on cotton.

2,5 x 2 meters.
