This work depicts conflict with sexuality. The artist utilizes her own image, rendering the figures with a focus on areas of light and highlight on the body. The soft, fading appearance of the drawing acts in contrast with the narrative of violence. Incongruence between the scene and the way it has been drawn questions the frequent acceptance of sexual violence and objectification in Western media. An appealing image is not always a good one. Though the two central figures are receiving the action of the piece, they are legitimized in a manner in which the perpetrators are not. The women are allowed an identity, where the arms are unbodied. Allusions in the pose to the reclining female nude and the body of Christ in iconography use history to discuss the complex identity of a woman empowered and victimized.
