Catharsis, in its essence, refers to the purification of the spirit through the release of emotions. The central theme of this work is liberation from oppression, representing the cleansing of the soul through emotional release. The woman, obeying a command to lift her skirt, embodies this dichotomy. The blindfold and the act of following orders symbolize suppression, yet beyond the shame lies a surrender of her will, and through this surrender, the liberation of her mind is achieved. The tension in her hands, the subtle expression around her mouth, and the position of her legs are deliberate attempts to capture the complexity of shame and the subsequent freedom that emerges from it.
