Pop culture highlights a stereotype that women can’t be friends. Whereas studies show us that when women make girl friends, not only do their happiness hormones shoot up but so does their self esteem and body positivity.
Cube of Sisterhood
Friendships have existed for longer than we can imagine. Female friendships also exist, but they are very seldom represented in pop culture.
This is because historically, women were married off for political and economic reasons. With the apathy that came with the marriage, they formed emotional bonds among other women around them, but they were only limited to their households.
The cube of sisterhood is a reminder to all the sisters of the world to support one another, to build a healthy community of positivity and affirmation rather than bring each other down. Don’t let pop culture steal your sisters!
Process
I experimented with an infinite pattern of hands that can be translated into the net of a cube to make it an infinite 3D tesselation.
