In Piiskaa! / Beat it! we see a woman cleaning a carpet. Though clearly she is beating the carpet up...is she angry and why?

 

In my recent work I’ve been working with questions of identity – specifically identity affected by social barriers and conventions based on gender and upbringing. There is something provocative about a physical woman; even a loud laughter can provoke some people. There is a prevailing notion that a loud physical woman is somehow deranged, out of control.
