As an artist, her main subjects are based on the women; the women around her; and she often depicts them in various social-historical situations. Women who are militant and in patriarchal countries who fight bravely for their cause, for their right to live. Sometimes history repeats itself and that's no different for the Iranian women. When the hijab is removed, they live in society as equal to many, not just men, but also other women. But once the hijab is on, their rights are stripped away and are looked at lesser beings worldwide. But there were always women who were half lost in the history of her country, those who were militant, those who took a step for their country and not for religion or politics, but for their own lives and society. Soudeh's recent painting collection is a tribute to the hidden women of her land and its history. A reminder that they too did excited and fought for her country and society. The milk of women who are always fighting for the right to live in society.
