Contextualisation for Shaped Paintings

An artist that I’ve read about recently who corresponds to my piece for shaped painting is Ilona Granet who uses feminism as a theme of a lot of her artworks and also includes text to them. The piece that I relate to the most is ‘Curb Your Animal Instincts’;

The image is of a beast straining on a leash towards a woman. Her work raises the obvious point that if there is a city ordinance against dog feces and horn blowing, why isn’t there one against harassing women on the streets?
