In an exhibition with installation and sculpture, Maria Ängquist Klyvare talks about the situation of women in the world, who are becoming more and more vulnerable.
Why does it look like it does in China, India and Iran, but also here in Sweden? In the acclaimed exhibition China Girl, 2010, she strove to provide an artistic commentary on grim statistics and unanswered questions. How does it look in China today, has the situation improved? Maria has read the latest statistics. Now she spins further on the theme of how girls and women are allowed to stand back even into our enlightened times.
