After the big black umbrellas demonstration, at which
our whole family got wet, we made a series of various
umbrellas. Women’s protest was growing in strength, the
socio-political situation was changing, and so were our
umbrellas. And so, at one point, they took on the colours
of the rainbow. The authorities did not stop inventing
more laws oppressing women. The movement radicalised
and adopted, as its symbol, a red lightning bolt. Our works
illustrate the continuity of the protest – a black umbrella
with a lightning bolt.
