Medalion Rahimi Instagram – “a poem in ‘trans-farsi’” is a visual poem about my experience with feminine identity, and the resistance towards its implications on behavior. ‘What a lady she is. How sweet she is.’ The cultural expectations of a woman, although established through patriarchal systems to satisfy the male gaze, are even inherited and passed on by the women in the family. To be delicate and soft like the petals of a flower. I relish in these aspects of divine feminity and recognize the mother archetype within myself, within all of us, however those are not the only characteristics that define me, or women, nor do these traits solely exist to please others, most especially men. no one can define you but you. ❤️ | Posted on 11/Apr/2023 22:25:14
