TAKARA: BINAH: The Veil

BINAH, this hyper realistic charcoal portrait depicts the emotions of women who are often expected to hide behind the veil but is not ready to compromise on their dreams. We hear but considered to be unheard, we see but considered to be unseen like a veil is wrapped around to halt our senses. Here we see the woman who breaks the veil and comes out powerful regardless of the pressure to remain covered.
