Freedom is not shame uses brutalist aesthetics—long tied to institutional authority—to critique the systems that dissect, control, and shame women’s bodies. Fragmented female forms reflect how media and institutions reduce women to parts, erasing autonomy and wholeness.

​

Created digitally, the piece challenges the media’s role in censoring and distorting body narratives. Brutalist design—raw type, stark composition—reclaims the language of power as a tool for resistance.

​

This work invites viewers to question:
Who defines freedom? Who decides what is shameful?
