Feet of Resistance - By Shaheen Sultan Dhanji

Feet of Resistance

Oil on Canvas, 2008 Collection

By: Shaheen Sultan Dhanji

I have come to realise that you cannot reach a goal without power. It is not a disgusting word, it's an important word. And, what better word to give a woman to use and keep as a virtue? A powerful woman can ignite many paths. -Shaheen Sultan Dhanji

\"Feet of Resistance\" is an oil painting I composed, inspired by a story I read by South Asian writer, Saadat Hassan Manto for the rights of women.

More and more women in various parts of the world are voicing their concerns, seeking for platforms to find solutions and are not complacent. Women are making remarkable differences in some parts of the world, yet, I believe more can be done by encouraging networking and applying resourcefulness to women in remote areas, not necessarily \"resources\".
