A sensory, sound-centric, visceral observation of female strength, stamina, and struggle, depicted through the visual metaphor of a female fighter. Presented as a three-channel immersive audiovisual installation, it envelops audiences within a trifold of screens to invite a comprehensive witness to female power. This conceptual nonfiction project is in conversation with the echoes of gendered violence, and invites viewers into an experience of female strength that transcends biography or justification.
