Privilege is a project that tries to raise a reflection about the meaning that encompasses the concept of "freedom" and especially those possibilities that the human being has of feeling free in the current social order. But there is a contraposition of concepts, that is, we are born as free people, but it is an oppressed freedom. This project relies heavily on a particular iconic territory, since freedom is embodied by the figure of a woman throughout history, but how is it possible for women to be the representation of freedom but it has been seen relegated to a position inferior to man? Why in some cultures has it been considered a divinity and currently in others it is considered a slave? With Privilege a claim is raised to seek an evolution in today's society, to achieve gender equality.
