A celebration of progress—or a reminder of how far we still have to go?
You've come a long way, baby explores the contradictions of female liberation, identity, and the persistent influence of cultural expectations.
Borrowing its title from a familiar advertising slogan once used to market empowerment to women, the work questions the distance between the promise of independence and the realities of femininity.
A vibrant composition of yellow-green washes, expressive pink gestures, fragmented female imagery, anatomical references, and handwritten marks creates a dialogue between beauty and vulnerability, freedom and constraint. The layered resin surface preserves these competing elements, allowing traces of nostalgia, rebellion, and personal history to coexist.
Both playful and provocative, the piece examines how femininity has been packaged, marketed, and redefined across generations. What initially appears celebratory reveals a more complicated question: How far have we really come, and who gets to decide?
