Untie The Red Ribbon Covering Your Eyes is a work that explores the role of women in patriarchal Turkish marriage traditions. Women in Turkey can still be subjected to forced marriage and be placed into marriage at a premature age. There is a need to challenge such traditional practices and continue to pursue the equal recognition and rights of women. It cannot be said that women and men are equal until everyone both believes and acts to attain equality within our systems of law and everyday life. Old traditions and attitudes that limit, contain and diminish women, must be stopped. This work points out the place of women in traditional Turkish marriage practices and the necessity of taking women up to where they should be.
