“Between The present and the past”
- One of the most crucial Tunisian concepts , “The struggling woman” , in the past , women of my country suffered a lot until our president “Bourguiba” gave them their freedom , and they started to enjoy more their rights , I widely respect women in Tunisia. They work whatever is hard , for example in the olive harvest seasons , they use their bodies and all their powers , they work in their traditional Tunisian dress , and they cover their hair , always looking forward , handling the sun , the weather if it’s cold or hot , they are much more independent , craving for their existence in a world that respect them more and more , this painting means a lot to me , I wanted to illustrate the idea and the look of that noble woman for me with all respect , this gold color holding this Tunisian traditional jar that we’ve been using since the past to keep water in it what a masterpiece I hope people can see this right through my eyes.
