Silenced is a small yet powerful portrait that captures the deep, often invisible pain of suppressed voice. The woman depicted has no mouth; instead, the area where her words would form dissolves into the red-toned background, a visual echo of loss and containment. Her eyes, still and quietly holding pain, tell a story of unspoken experiences.
This piece speaks to the experience of many women who, in the aftermath of trauma — particularly sexual trauma — find themselves unable to speak their needs, set boundaries, or even name their truths.
Silenced is not just a portrayal of pain, but an act of reclamation — a quiet, steady honoring of the courage it takes to confront what was once unspeakable, and to begin, little by little, to find one's voice again.
Poem
I feel I have a choice
I try to raise my voice
Expanding in my chest
Emptiness and loneliness
I open my mouth to words
That never come along
Heart beating with fear
Eyes containing my tears
Is my brain melting?
Slipping uninterestingly?
Or is the past that taught me
That is not safe to speak up?
A bird without its wings
Creativity in dismay
A home for somebody else
A stranger for myself
Time slips, things change
Forgotten in the depths
Behind the smile on my lips
A hurricaine contained
A touch, a caress, a kiss,
My insides shake and squeeze
The words were never there
For as long as I can remember
