According to Bored Panda, female sculptorHein Kohin Brooklyn, USA, has caused a stir in the country's social media community when posting a meaningful photo to protest a message about pressure on children that a colleague had previously put out.

In an interview with a German newspaper,Marina Abramovic -Serbian-American performing artist - says having children destroys creativity and that women in the arts are not as successful as men because they are tied down with children.

"I had three abortions because I was sure that having children would be a disaster for my career," said the 69-year-old artist."Each person only has a certain amount of strength, and I will have to share this resource if I have children."

After reading the interview, Koh objected.Abramovic by posting a photo of her working and breastfeeding her two children on Facebook and Instagram on August 18.

"On September 15, 2015, when my twins were five weeks old, despite being sleep deprived and constantly breastfeeding, I was still working well," Koh wrote. "Marina Abramovic thinks that children hinder women from advancing in the arts, but that's not true. That's just her personal experience, not everyone's."

"Being a mother of two children makes me a better artist. I learned how to work and relax effectively. Women should help each other, not judge or criticize others."

Koh’s post attracted thousands of comments, most of which praised her as a capable woman and supported her views on motherhood.
