The works of the artist Maria Clotilde Schenetti are an intense look at the experiences of two women who live in different eras and different situations.
Schenetti explores the theme of female freedom and reflection, they are figures who are questioning themselves, they are exploring their condition, their feelings.
In the woman surrounded by a cage with her gaze fixed on a dove, we notice a trapped figure who is looking for a way to take flight and find the same freedom that the bird next to her possesses.
The animal brings with it a message of possibility, of hope and light thinking.
This representation invites women to explore their mental boundaries and follow their dream of thinking free from any social pattern (the cage).
The second woman belongs to the past to times gone by, when the woman was above all the one who had to manage the house.
Her clothes belong to a girl who dedicates herself to household chores and her feelings certainly have no place in the family.
The figure is almost bent over, he is sad for something he has experienced or perhaps he suffers for love, we won't know, we can only imagine it in that hand covering his face.
The work takes us to female emotions, to the feelings of young people in every past and in every present.
Both works celebrate the strength of women to seek their affirmation as an identity through thoughts and emotions.
