The image shows a South Indian nun from Kerala, her stout figure exuding a sense of resilience and determination, as stands with her feet shoulder-width apart, conveying a powerful presence. Her hands in a traditional Indian gesture of respect her posture and facial expression subtly this sign of deference, hinting at a deeper defiance against the Catholical norms she has been subjected to. The nun's face is a map of contrasting emotions, with a glimmer of hope her eyes that suggests a longing for a more equitable future, while her furrow brow and set jaw betray a-seated anger at the injust she has faced. A golden rosary hangs around her neck, its delicate and crucifix a poignant symbol of her faith, which she wears as a badge of honor and a reminder of her unwering commitment to her spiritual path. The nun's dark skin glows with a warm, earthy undertone, as if infused the rich tones of the Kerala landscape and her features are set in a resolute expression, as if she is daring to deny her the same powers and respect afforded to her male counterparts in the clergy.
