Shortlist

In my house, there are a total of 5 women including me living together. I was always surrounded by feminine energy since I was born. I decided to show many different aspects of femininity in this painting by using the art nouveau style which has always presented the female figure in an ethereal way. I wanted to convey a woman whose age was unclear and whose general presence was kind of mysterious. Because, as a woman can be ordinary, her femininity itself can make her extraordinary.
