Beautiful yet haunting images of women. Some portraits look like photographs. The expressions of the women show the plight they have experienced. The self-portraits are moving. These women are heroes, yet few would say so. They have experienced pain and suffering at the hands of men. These are the ones who lived to tell their stories.
