A Girl With Closed Eyes

When I began to delve into fabrics, patterns, and colors regarding clothing and matching, and when I started taking photographs and telling models to remove their own identities from the photo and become 'dolls/mannequins/products,' just as their families, society, and the government wanted... when I said that this reality of ours has become fake, and when I said, 'Look at yourself as if you have no identity, you are dead inside, angry but hidden, angry but under your skin, under the ashes, you are in pain but rotten, inside gone to the bone marrow, you have an identity but frozen, you exist but have been ignored'... I never thought that these days would come. This is you, and this accusatory gaze of the women in the 'Estella' collection has become a denial, a big lie.
