About this artwork
A figure rises, adorned in patterned garments, her form encircled by bold red threads. The stitches cut across her body like emblems of defiance, holding her presence in place while amplifying her power. Pride becomes both portrait and protest, an image of dignity sewn into being.
Rinaal Rekab reclaims textile traditions as acts of resistance. Through stitching, she transforms fragility into armor, inscribing stories of cultural memory and feminine strength directly onto the surface.
Best displayed in modern or eclectic interiors, where layered textures, linen walls, muted tones, or handcrafted furniture allow the stitched red lines to stand out like veins of living heritage.
