Descrizione Opera / Biografia


Pshtjellaku is part of the national clothing of Albanian women. It consists of two parts: the longer part (in my case 43cm X 28cm) which is placed in front and the smaller part (28cm x 28.5cm) in the back. In them I wrote the signage and the first letters of the alphabet. For concepts, I am quoting an article from the Ora newspaper in 1929, which states:
”It is too much to emphasize here the importance that female education has for society... It is enough to note that Albanian women are remaining in the dark and this shortcoming will be filled as soon as possible, that without having girls educated, we cannot wait neither civilized women, as good mothers, as well-grown sons”.
