The imbalance of her head and body is a metaphor for the realities of many African women — their intellect, thoughts, and burdens magnified, while their physical presence and agency are often minimized or constrained. The oversized head suggests the weight of expectation and unspoken responsibility, while the shrunken hands hint at limited power to shape their own destinies. The artwork confronts the paradox of women who carry immense roles in family and society, yet are too often denied equal space, recognition, and freedom.
