Description

The connection between a traditional dress and a school uniform is connected by emotional content insinuated by the work of Kahlo. In this work, she inserts her emotions while also creating the allusion of mystery because what the artist feels and how she wants the audience to feel are two different perspectives in which Kahlo explores in this work.
