#403 LIMELIGHT

LIMELIGHT is the title of Charlie Chaplin’s film released in 1952.

My “Visual Song” is painted on a 72-year old gramophone record, sound track from the film.

Social discrimination, including gender inequality, is very present in most of Charlie Chaplin’s films. Female characters in his movies are often honest hard working women facing a cruel and hard society.

This “Visual Song” is dedicated to women all over the world who are fighting today for their rights with strength and dignity. My wish, through my “Visual Song”, is to symbolically put these unseen and unknown women “flower” into the “limelight”. 

The Mandala circle concept represents visually the never-ending and changing song of life.
