Art imitates life? ⚖️ Thanks to birthify_ for sharing this incredible sculpture.
This six-armed, pregnant version of Themis (the goddess of justice) balances the demands of work while holding a baby. It serves as a visual reminder that maternity leave should be a fundamental right. 🤱
Artist Stefanie Horniki worked with mutterschutzfueralle - a non-profit association advocating for maternity protection for the self-employed - to create this powerful piece outside the German Bundestag. 🏛️
It serves as a striking representation of the structural support needed for women everywhere.
