At the center is the woman as the linchpin of the work. The portraits of women reveal strength of will and dignity. They are women with attitude and their own life plan, strong personalities who pursue and find their own way without denying their feminine side. A central feature of the portrayed is the absence of eyes, mouth, nose and ears, without making the women faceless. Especially in Western culture, physionomy is considered an important clue for deciphering a personality and its state of mind. In Rebecca Bernau's figures, the viewer grasps the facial expressions through the central motif of equality.
