Venus, drowned out by the patriarchy, lose her mane. Wigs and postiches for the bald Venus

In Venus, drowned by the patriarchy, lose her mane, the patriarchy (familiar home) drowns and despises the nature of Venus. The goddess, to survive, accepts rols opposed to her essence, losing the power and it’s symbol: the mane. Samson lost the power when Dalila cut him the mane and the Indian warriors carried long hairs for the fight. Once she lost her power (the hair), Venus develops strategies to distract the patriarchy and achieve her own aims. The wigs allude to the structures overlayed to the Venus nature that allow her to survive and attain some goals in the patriarchy system. The casseroles evoke the home-made tactics of Venus.
